Best-matched service
They tolerate respectful older children but dislike rough handling and teasing. They are usually better in homes without toddlers.
They bark to warn of strangers and noises but are not constant barkers. Early training helps them settle on cue.
They are intelligent but proud and stubborn, so patience and reward-based methods work far better than force.
