    How To Find a Dog With a Good Temperament

    Deciding on a dog can be both exciting and perplexing. The one thing we all want to know is how our new dog's character will reveal itself.

    Knowing why a breed was created, and the country and climate it initially came from, can help you understand what to expect in terms of behaviour and temperament.

    Some breeds require much more attention than others. A breed's true temperament can also take time to develop: the boxer's playful and extrovert nature means it takes longer to mature than other breeds.

    The puppies of particular breeds could be very hard work in the early weeks but can make wonderful adult dogs.

    There are seven types of dogs:
    • Gun dog
    • Toy dog
    • Utility Dog
    • Hound dog
    • Terrier
    • Working dog
    • Pastoral

Briquet Griffon Vendeen Information

The Briquet Griffon Vendéen has a short head, low-set ears and a bushy double coat. It comes in solid or mixed colors, fawn, light brown, white and orange, white and gray and even tri-colored. They stand from 20 - 22 inches at the withers. They weigh from 48 to 53 lbs.

The Briquet is a passionate hunter with stamina and fortitude. It should be able to pick up a cold trail as well as a hot one. Like its close relations the other vendeen hounds, the Briquet relishes its time outdoors with its family. While they are not high-strung, they are lively and enthusiastic dogs. Bred to work in packs as well as on their own, they get along well with other dogs and are not overly possessive about anything. They are fine companion for children. Griffons do not particularly take to being told what to do. They do not mind being cajoled, bribed, or played with- and if these things lead them to do something their owner likes, then everyone is happy.
