Hana Inuzuka

is the daughter of Tsume Inuzuka and older sister of Kiba Inuzuka. She is a Chunin as well as an excellent and respected veterinarian. Her canine companions, three nin-dog brothers who possess dark grey fur, are called the Haimaru Sankyodai.

Personality
Hana is more laid-back and even-tempered than her little brother, albeit she still at times lives up to her clan's feral demeanor and is more than willing to fight to defend her village. And similar to most of the Inuzuka clan, Hana is fiercely loyal to her family and appears to be very close to her younger brother. Unlike her little brother and in part due to her medical-nin profession, Hana seems to be the more intelligent and studious child of the family, possessing a very sharp mind in regards to medical jutsu, especially those pertaining to veterinary medicine.

She has a tattoo on her upper right arm that resembles a flower and the traditional fang-like tattoos of the Inuzuka clan on both of her cheeks. Hana is also noted to have a softer appearance than the other members of her family, not having extended canines or having wild hair. Her name Hana means flower but in keeping with the Inuzuka clan tradition it is also a dog's body part, in this case meaning nose.

Filler
She appears to be Akamaru's primary veterinary care giver as she tended to his wounds after the Sasuke Retrieval mission and during the filler arcs when he contracted a disease from a biological weapon and became feral. Hana, however, is not the highest ranked veterinarian in Konoha as Akamaru was ceded to the Konoha Veterinarian Hospital. That said, the hospital was unable to complete its treatment of his disease before Kiba broke him out, unwilling to trust the other doctors with Akamaru's care. Hana, however, was able to create an antidote before Akamaru's condition became irreversible and with help from Kiba, Naruto, the Haimaru triplets, and Akamaru himself she was able to cure him of the sickness.

Hana is a very loving older sister who has been seen to take care of Kiba and the house while their Jonin mother is absent on missions. However, despite being a gifted veterinarian, Hana is shown to be less skilled in domestic pursuits as her mending of Naruto's bitten pants left something to be desired, resembling sutures more than sewing.
