Dog breeds for experienced owners
A dog is an amazing creature, truly capable of becoming a man’s best friend. Loyalty to the owner, friendliness, help in everyday life, with children, protection from strangers – these qualities are genetically inherent in dogs. But there are a number of breeds that cannot show their abilities without training. This article will focus on dog breeds for professionals.
Those who still choose a pet should be aware that there are potentially dangerous breeds of dogs, which are not recommended for training and education by people without experience. Also, there are certain breeds that are not legally included in the registered list and are not considered potentially dangerous, but it is worth making no less effort to educate them.
Their brightest representatives:
- Alabai (Central Asian Shepherd). The breed, the formation of which began about 5-6 thousand years ago in the territories of the countries of the former USSR. The dimensions of the Alabai are impressive: they reach 70 cm at the withers, and weigh at least 50 kg. With such dimensions, their wayward character, unpredictability and harshness will certainly require serious training from puppyhood.
- Akita Inu. A breed of dog from Japan, whose ancestors, the Matagi Inu, helped people hunt wild boar and bear. In the XII-XIII centuries, they began to cross with Great Danes and Mastiffs in order to bring out a domestic look with fighting qualities. In the XNUMXth century, a breed standard was developed, according to which excessive aggressiveness is considered a marriage. Only experienced owners should start such a dog.
- The Rottweiler is distinguished by intelligence, devotion and responsibility for the functions assigned to it. Protection is the strength of the breed, but you should not spare money for proper training, because it is necessary to form the character of a puppy of this breed from childhood.
- Doberman is a breed of dog bred in Germany. Thanks to their energetic disposition and natural strength, they have established themselves as dogs that require professional training. Incredibly smart and hyperactive, these animals need training with a dog handler. Constant physical activity and early socialization will help even out their violent nature.
- The Caucasian Shepherd Dog (Caucasian Wolfhound) is a huge animal with a lightning-fast reaction that can sweep everything out of its way. When training this breed, emotional contact with the owner is very important. You can’t resort to physical strength when raising a wolfhound puppy – this way you can get an embittered and cruel creature that is incompatible with home living conditions. Professional training is a way out for those who dream of a great watchman.
- The Rhodesian Ridgeback, or African Lion Dog, is a South African breed bred to hunt lions. According to the owners, this is an intelligent dog. An incredible mind, the qualities of a companion, a nanny to children and a watchman – all this is instilled from puppyhood with the help of professional training.
A pet is a reflection of the owner, so it is important to give him love and affection from birth. Then it will hardly be possible to apply the word “dangerous” to such breeds.
