Thai Ridgeback Personality

    Hoping to bring a dog into your home? Some pet dog breeds are easier to own than others, especially for beginner dog parents.

    To identify the easiest canine breeds to own, we looked at a number of important characteristics. And you might be shocked by the characteristics that matter most. For instance, you might think you want a clever dog. But highly intelligent dogs aren't always the easiest to train, because trainability is more about a dog's desire to follow instructions than his ability to understand them.

    You might expect an active dog will be the easiest to keep healthy. But a dog with a lower energy level and no genetic predisposition to disease will actually be easier to handle. Plus, choosing a dog with an easygoing temperament - and minimal grooming needs - will go a very long way toward keeping you right-minded.

    Top 5 Easiest Dog's To Own

    1. Beagle - The beagle is amongst the top 10 most popular breeds for good reason: He has a bigger-than-life character and a merry nature that make him a joyful and warm friend.

    2. Border Terrier - The border terrier is very "joyful," "plucky," and "caring." This dog has a mild energy level but a more laid-back personality than many other terriers.

    3. Bulldog - If you want a patient and mellow pet dog, you can't go wrong with the bulldog. You can efficiently train your bulldog - especially if you use lots of praise and incentives and maintain a sense of humor.

    4. Cavalier King Charles Spaniel - They can be faithful hiking partners or shameless couch potatoes, depending on the owner's character - as long as they get a rewarding walk each day.

    5. Basset Hound - These medium-sized dogs aren't very active. And while most dog owners won't put the basset hound's hunting prowess to the test, they'll value the breed's sheer patience with children.

Thai Ridgeback Information

The Thai Ridgeback is a medium-sized pariah-type dog, with a wedge-shaped head, prick ears, and a short, smooth coat. The length of body from point of buttocks to point of sternum is about 10 percent longer than the height measured at the withers. The depth of chest is equal to the length of the foreleg. The tail is carried vertically or curved like a sickle. This breed is characterized by a ridge of hair growing in the opposite direction to the rest of the coat. This ridge starts at the withers and extends down the spine to the top of the pelvis bones.

Until recently the Thai Ridgeback was relatively unknown outside of eastern Thailand and is very rare elsewhere. This breed is a good watch, guard and hunting dog, but also makes a nice companion. Tough and active with excellent jumping ability. It is a very active and alert dog but also without socialization can be a bit aloof toward strangers. May be difficult to train. The Thai Ridgeback needs a dominant owner who understands the breed. One who has natural authority, in a firm but calm manner; confident and consistent with the rules placed upon the dog. A Thai’s owner that does not correct the dog at the proper times may find that the dog develops aggressive tendencies. With the right handler it is never too late to curb any unwanted behaviors once the owners learn how to properly treat the dog, along with providing the proper mental and physical exercise.
