Examples Of Non-Sporting Dogs (Part 2)
from:Dalmatian: Firemen, popular movies, and their spots make Dalmatians a favorite of children. The Dalmatian is an alert, strong, medium-size dog with great potential for just about any type of work. You should choose a job for your Dalmatian as it will be important in controlling your dog's energy and drive.
This breed is intensely eager to learn. This can be a stubborn breed of dog to work with, which is a very good thing only if you enjoy working out the kinks when it comes to dog training. Keep in mind that there have been many disastrous cases of territorial and dominance aggression in the Dalmatian. All too often this breed is selected for its spots - and there is more to the Dalmatian than just spots.
French Bulldog: An adorable, bright, feisty little guy, the Frenchie is cute. Be prepared to manage his possible dog aggression, but they are really nice animals. Many trainers have found them willing enough to learn the work. Sometimes they get a little spaced out, but usually their focus is great.
Keeshond: This dog from Holland is a cousin to the Pomeranian and other spitz breeds such as the Samoyed and Norwegian elkhound. Nice family dogs, they can be a bit barky when not exercised enough. They are super house dogs that generally enjoy being brushed and pampered. The keeshond is easy to train, and in general, a delightful breed.
Lhasa Apso: The Lhasa Apso is a shrimp in size and a giant in attitude. This Tibetan lion dog was developed as a guard dog, and its work ethic is holding strong. A furry adorable puppy shortly turns into something like Robo-Cop, leaving you wondering where that sweet puppy went.
Simple to housebreak, they are very clean dogs. Ninety percent of Lhasas tend to bite. When considering this breed, be aware of these tendencies. Training as well as socialization should be started early With the Lhasa your dominant status must be consistently maintained.
Poodles (Miniature and Standard): Poodles are popular for the following good reasons:
1. Are very easy to train.
2. Come in a size for everyone.
3. Are basically hypoallergenic.
4. Sport very fancy "hairdos" (haircuts and clothes).
The possible problems include aggression, house soiling, and excessive barking, although the majority of poodles are easily conditioned into correct behavior. The Poodle is recommended for most situations. Buying a well-bred individual is the most important issue in poodle selection.
Schipperke: Schipperkes are interesting dogs. Many people like the look of this small, shiny black breed. You will enjoy a dog like this with its spunk and spirit. This breed has also been noted on its excessive barking, dominance and territorial aggression. This is not surprising, since they were bred to guard docks and barges. They are easily motivated with toys and treats and can train all day if they are having fun with the lessons.
