Answer 2

In my enjoy, the puppy breeds that are the least prone to expand human aggression problems are the Pug, Beagle, English Bulldog, and Boston Terrier. I have not fairly noticeable an instance of any of the ones breeds that I might say had a significant aggression obstacle, even though I have met various fearful Beagles. Well-bred Labrador Retrievers, Golden Retrievers, Pit Bulls, and Greyhounds might be proper up there as good. On the opposite hand are the breeds that are certainly to be competitive. I have by no means had a first-rate enjoy with a Yorkie. In truth, of the 50 or so Yorkies that I have encountered, I might say all 50 had a few style of aggression obstacle. Chow Chows, Akitas, and Chihuahuas are proper up there as good. But, I might say that essentially the most competitive puppy breeds are the quite a lot of breeds of Terrier from Scotland, the Scottish Terrier, West Highland White Terrier, Cairn Terrier, Dandie Dinmont Terrier, and Skye Terrier. Scotties and Westies in precise are very bitey puppies.

First answer is very correct. I take pictures for a local "Humane Society" these are dogs that want love soooooo much and people are caught up it a paper thing, which I not go there as to how it manipulated. I had a full bred Border Collie from the humane society, damn good dog and was "Free": but no papers. There is a a man that show and compete these dogs and he was very impressed by my dog. Heck, once I happened to be in a town where they were competing and was eating breakfast and these guys bragging about how their Border Collie did this and that and won this ribbon and that ribbon. Finally I spoke up and said; "My Border Collie can round up a Sausage Biscuit faster than your dogs can scramble eggs"! They were speechless and knew they had met their match! :-D

Answer 4

Beagle

Answer 5

As others have said the care and size of the dog must fit your lifestlye- I have three japanese chin-great lovable dogs-so
sweet and a bundle of fun in a small package.
They shed- but brushing helps and they do not need to be groomed-they do not eat alot-and are very cuddly.
All three of mine are rescue-one from a breeder-one from an amish puppy mill and one from a pet store that could not sell.
I am a member of JCCARE japanese chin care and rescue effort. Check our site on the web to see our available dogs or go on petfinder for other rescues. Please adopt- there are so many homeless dogs whatever breed you choose and you do find puppies so you don't have to adopt an older dog.

Answer 6

Depends on your living situation. Beagles are pretty good all-around dogs.

I think you should get a Cocker Spaniel.They are great with kids if you have any.They don't grow big at all (usually 25-30 pounds) and they're great in any weather.Amazing companions and very alert.I have one and I wouldn't want any other breed.
