Obviously finding a mongrel with the right temprament is hard so I leave it up to you to choose a breed:
I need something medium/ large size, preferably shorter furred as we live in a wet, muddy area of the country. It needs to be quiet but able to bark the house down when needs be. A good walker but mustn't pull the walker along with it.
I also need something that will be a good family dog in a smaller house but will also be willing to do 'guard' duty when I am away (my mother is infirm and a sentinel with a nice set of gnashers would help put her at ease).
Anything fit the bill? I'm looknig for something a little less docile that a Dobermann but more aggressive than a Shitzu!
Thanks!
PS, I realise that a lot of these traits are down to individual dogs but a generalisation would be nice! Also would gender matter in these circumstances?
