    While most dogs are definitely fond of people, some are extremely sociable and love to meet new people all the time. Kindness doesn't necessarily depend on breed. The majority of dogs are friendly if they have been exposed to new people, places, and experiences as they were growing up.

The neck is slender and arched slightly, to the chest which is narrow and deep. The ribs are well-sprung with a strong, sloping back. It should have straight forelegs and strong, powerful hindlegs. The feet are hard and foxlike. The tail is slightly curved. Overall, the Ariegeois is a talented scenthound, and affectionate and serene in the home.

Good speed; a degree of endurance not generally found in hounds of this size. A surprisingly deep, powerful voice and remarkable scenting ability.
