    How To Find a Dog With a Good Temperament

    Selecting 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.

    Understanding why a breed was developed, 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 some time to cultivate: the boxer's extrovert and playful nature means it takes longer to mature than other breeds.

    The puppies of particular breeds can be very hard work in the early weeks but can make fantastic adult dogs.

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

Coton De Tulear Information

“Coton” is the French word for cotton. Like the name suggests, the most conspicuous feature of the Coton de Tulear is its coat, which is cottony or fluffy rather than silky. It has a long topcoat. The fluffy hair covers the thin, lightly-muscled forelegs. Colors come in white and black, and white and tri-colored. (White is preferred by show breeders.) Some have slightly yellowish markings on the ears.

Cotons are happy dogs that thrive on human companionship. Puppy kindergarten and obedience training are recommended. They should not be left unattended for long periods of time. They are extremely sturdy and versatile, excelling in all types of dog activities, from agility to therapy. The breed gets along well with other dogs, cats and children provided that proper socialization is given.
