Can East-European Shepherd Dogs Get Along With Cats?

    There are dog people as well as there are cat individuals - yet what about those of us who love both? Can we have a feline as well as a dog in our family, or are they truly mortal enemies?

    Rest assured, canines and pet cats can become the best of close friends, or at least learn to peacefully coexist. If you already have a feline in your home as well as are aiming to add a dog, choosing the right breed will go a long way toward a harmonious connection.

    Specific breed groups are more likely to get along with cats than others. As an example, the Toy Group includes breeds that are affectionate as well as sociable. They were reproduced to be companions as well as lap warmers.

    Participants of the Sporting Group get along as well as outward bound. These carefree dogs are pleased to make friends with anyone they meet, including felines.

    On the other hand, the spirited Terriers were developed to search and also eliminate vermin. A fast-moving feline can set off those lively aggressive instincts. And the sighthounds of the Hound Group are hardwired for a chase. No feline will appreciate being the target of that sort of interest.

    Ultimately, members of the Herding Group have a strong desire to herd anything that relocates, including their owner and also children. Some pet cats could find this aggravating to endure.

    Bear in mind that these are generalizations. A lot of dog breeds can live steadly with a cat if they are trained well and mingled as pups.
