Are Lurcher Dogs Aggressive To Strangers

    When it comes to choosing a dog, you most likely want one that is friendly, whether that's toward people, other pets, or both. Put simply, a happy-go-lucky pooch that gets along with everyone.

    While most pet dogs are definitely fond of people, some are extremely sociable and love to meet new people all the time. Friendliness doesn't necessarily depend upon breed. Most dogs are friendly if they have been introduced to new people, places, and adventures as they were growing up.

    Effectively, you can make any dog into a friendly dog if you ensure they have an energetic social life and a happy home. Practically all canines will be social with their owners, but some breeds were bred as guardians and can be wary and even threatening toward strangers.

    Top 5 Friendly Dog Breeds

    1. Labrador Retrievers temperament towards people is almost incomparable. Labradors are amazingly social toward everyone they meet and many behavioral problems in the breed arise because of their want to be around people.

    2. Poodles very active, social, and smart dogs that make amazing buddies. They do extremely well in a variety of different dog sports and delight in the company of people, friend or stranger.

    3. Pug is so adored partly due to its looks, but also because of its fantastic personality. Pugs are extremely social, they love everyone and get along very well with other animals.

    4. Cavalier King Charles Spaniel is one of the smallest spaniels, the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel was bred primarily as a buddy and lapdog. Because of this, they are extremely friendly with their families and strangers, gladly meeting as many new people as they can.

    5. Boxer was originally bred as a guard dog in Germany, but there are very few working Boxers left. Today, most are active, smart family companions that are terrific for individuals and families alike. They are very social dogs and enjoy meeting and playing with new people and other dogs.

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.
