Sarplaninac Personality

    Hoping to bring a pet dog into your home? Some pet dog breeds are easier to own than others, specifically for newbie dog parents.

    To find the easiest dog breeds to own, we took a look at an assortment of essential characteristics. And you might be surprised by the characteristics that matter most. You might think you want a smart dog. But very smart dogs aren't always the simplest to train, because trainability is more about a dog's willingness to follow instructions than his ability to comprehend them.

    You might assume an active dog will be the simplest to keep healthy. A dog with a lower energy level and no genetic predisposition to disease will really be easier to manage. Plus, choosing a dog with an easygoing temperament - and minimal grooming needs - will go a long way toward keeping you right-minded.

    Top 5 Easiest Dog's To Own

    1. Beagle - The beagle is one of the top 10 most popular breeds for good reason: He has a bigger-than-life personality and a merry nature that make him a happy and warm buddy.

    2. Border Terrier - The border terrier is very "happy," "plucky," and "tender." This dog has a mild energy level but a more laid-back personality than many other terriers.

    3. Bulldog - If you want a patient and mellow pet dog, you can't make a mistake with the bulldog. You can effectively train your bulldog - particularly if you use lots of praise and incentives and keep a sense of humor.

    4. Cavalier King Charles Spaniel - They can be loyal hiking partners or shameless couch potatoes, relying on the owner's character - as long as they get an enjoyable walk each day.

    5. Basset Hound - These medium-sized dogs aren't very active. And while most dog owners won't put the basset hound's hunting prowess to the test, they'll cherish the breed's sheer patience with children.

Sarplaninac Dog Traits

Sarplaninac Information

The Šarplaninac is a large, strongly built dog. The body is slightly longer than the height at the withers, and the front legs account for approximately 55% of the height. The head is large but proportional to the body, with dark eyes. All Šarplaninac are solid in colour: fawn, iron grey, white or almost black; usually sable or gray with darker "overalls" on the head and back, the undercoat being paler. The colour need not be completely uniform, and most Šarplaninac have several different shades of the same colour fading into one another. There are no bicolours and no uniformly black-coated dogs among purebreds, but odd-coloured specimens do exist. The dogs must not have large white patches in their coat.

The temperament of the breed is described as independent, reliable, protective but not snappy, incorruptible and devoted to its master. The breed is aloof with outsiders, and calm until a threat to the flock presents itself. The breed has an extremely protective nature. In the absence of a flock of sheep, the Šarplaninac will often treat its humans as sheep - herding them away from danger or undesirable areas. They are serene and majestic, gentle with children and smaller dogs. They are also highly intelligent and bred to work without human supervision while guarding the flocks in the high pastures. Young pups can kill small animals until trained not to hunt. Like many of its cousin Mountain dogs, the Šarplaninac is a very serious and dedicated guard dog. Due to this, they are naturally suspicious of strangers and will need good socializing at a young age to lessen this innate personality trait. They are calm and gentle with their family but when faced with danger they become a formidable foe, not a suitable breed for all. Consistent and firm training is essential to ensure compliance.
