    How To Find a Dog With a Good Temperament

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

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

    Some breeds demand much more attention than others. A breed's true temperament can also take time to cultivate: the boxer's spirited 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


Brittany Temperament Personality

Brittany Information

The leggiest of the sporting breeds, the Brittany is square-proportioned, the height at the shoulder equaling the length of the body. It stands slightly higher at the withers than at the rump. It is medium-sized with light bone. The combination of long legs and light bones endows the Brittany with remarkable agility and speed. In fact, the breed is very quick and is noted for its ground-covering side movement at the trot. The Brittany may be born tailless or have the tail docked to about 4 inches. The breed's coat is far less profuse than that of spaniels and is either flat or wavy. An overly profuse coat is detrimental when hunting in briars and is considered a severe fault. The Brittany's expression is alert and eager, but soft. The eyes are protected from briars by a fairly heavy eyebrow. The Brittany is an extremely athletic, eager dog that should be ready and able to run in the field for extended periods.

In temperament, the Brittany is friendly and eager to please. These friendly little dogs hunt more like a Setter due to their pointing ability, and are higher on their legs than other Spaniels. The Brittany does not require a heavy hand in training. In fact, they may quit if the discipline is too stern. Much more is accomplished with a gentle hand. They seek human attention, which makes them easier to train than some other hunting breeds. They make close working hunting dogs, fine companions, and family pets.
