Kiba Inuzuka is a loud and head-strong Chunin member of Kurenai Yuhi's Team 8. He's from Konohagakure's Inuzuka family, known for their use of Nin-dogs in battle, and has an almost symbiotic relation with his nin-dog Akamaru – they are even able to communicate with each other, allowing Kiba to gain information from Akamaru's heightened senses of smell and hearing. The two also perform many jutsu together, such as Beast Human Clone so that they both look like a beastlike Kiba. Afterward they can use Double Piercing Fang to spin towards the opponent at high speed, causing great damage on impact. By gathering chakra to his nose, Kiba can also increase his own sense of smell a thousand-fold.

Additional Info:

The name Inuzuka, meaning house of dogs, belongs to a clan that was one of the most powerful in the Chiba prefecture in Japan during the Edo period. They were known as dog warriors and worshipped Inu (meaning dog), a deity representing the zodiac sign of the dog. The name Inuzuka also originates from Hakkenden, a novel about a dog samurai. Kiba literally means fang.

According to the official databook, Kiba's favorite foods are beef jerky and gristle. His least favorite foods are anything that he can't chew. His hobby is walking with Akamaru, which rarely involves simple walking. His favorite phrase is Akamaru.
