    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.

    Finding out 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 character.

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

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

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


Borzoi Temperament Personality

Borzoi Information

The borzoi is a running hound capable of hunting large, fierce game in a very cold climate. As such, it retains the greyhound build necessary for running at great speed, but it is larger and stronger than the greyhound. Its jaws should be strong enough to hold down a wolf. The long, silky coat, which can be either flat, wavy or rather curly, provides protection against cold weather and snow. Borzois should possess elegance and grace, with flowing lines, whether standing or moving.

A breed of quiet elegance, the borzoi exemplifies the well-mannered house dog. Outdoors, it races with wild abandon, and it will chase any small animal that runs. It is independent but very sensitive. Although generally good with children, it may not be playful enough to satisfy some children. Some can be timid. It is reserved with strangers.
