The name "Inunaki" is said to have been given by Emperor Uda based on the legend of the righteous dog that has been handed down since around 960. Although the date of the opening of the spring is not known for certain, it is said to have been used by Masanari Kusunoki during the Nanbokucho Period to heal wounded soldiers who were defeated in battle.
