Lurcher Personality

    Wishing to bring a canine into your home? Some pet dog breeds are much easier to own than others, particularly for novice dog parents.

    To identify the easiest canine breeds to own, we had a look at a range of crucial qualities. And you might be surprised by the characteristics that matter most. For instance, you might think you want a smart dog. Highly intelligent dogs aren't always the easiest to train, because trainability is more about a dog's willingness to follow instructions than his capability to understand them.

    You might expect an energetic dog will be the easiest to keep healthy. But a canine with a lower energy level and no genetic predisposition to disease will actually be easier to handle. Plus, choosing a dog with an easygoing temperament - and minimal grooming needs - will go a long way toward keeping you right-minded.

    Ready to find the ideal dog? Look at 5 of the easiest dog breeds to own.

    Top 5 Easiest Dog's To Own

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

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

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

    4. Cavalier King Charles Spaniel - They can be faithful hiking partners or shameless couch potatoes, relying on the owner's personality - as long as they get a satisfying walk each day.

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

Lurcher Information

The Lurcher has a short coat and a smooth undercoat that thickens in the winter. The legs are long and straight. The chest is deep, providing lung capacity for endurance. The small, wire-haired ears are high set. The small, dark eyes are round and alert. Colors vary widely since the Lurcher is derived from sighthound crosses. There is also a longhaired variety.

Temperament is also variable, again dependent on parental influence. As could be expected, lurchers with dominant sighthound attributes have similar temperaments—often fairly lazy with a good eye—however, accordingly, others are influenced by their other, often more tractable, biddable, and slower parent. As with all dogs, temperament will be modified by socialising the puppy.
