The working dog group is the complete opposite as it is made up of some of the biggest dogs you can find. In the past they have aided their owners in many tasks and have a high intelligence. Great if you want an energetic dog to spend countless hours playing and having fun. They are loyal companions that need good training and socialization from a young age.
If you are planning on owning a pooch from the Hound Dogs group, it is important that you know their traits and characteristics.
They are the best dog breed group to be used for hunting purposes due to their keen sense of smell or sight, but this can be a problem as it can easily distract them from your attention.
This can make them take a little bit longer than other dogs to train and makes them harder to control off the lead.
That being said, these dogs will love and admire you and make for great companions.
Sporting Dog breed group is made up of some of the most active and energetic dogs around. These pups will need you to give them plenty of exercise and activity to keep them from getting bored. If you love to go for long walks or enjoy strenuous exercise then a sporting dog will be a great friend indeed.
They make for loving companions as long as you’re willing to put in the time and effort to keep them occupied.
Herding Dogs can be great as a family pet or as a working friend on a farm. They love and are naturally great at herding pretty much all animals but are mainly used for sheep and cattle. If you have children, they sometimes will even attempt to herd your children!
They are extremely affectionate dogs and love having things to do. Fetch is usually one of their all time favorites but anything that involves you and your pooch is something they’ll crave.
The Terrier Dog group is made up of breeds, historically used for removing pests such as rats. These days their brighter side is seen in many homes as loyal and affectionate family members.
They range in size and although most are smaller sized dogs, they will require good training and socialization. With a lot of attention and care, these pups make great friends and companions.
Non Sporting Dogs are made up of the most diverse group of breeds around. The different breeds in this group don’t really have much in common with each other however they don’t quite fit into any of the other groups.
Many of the pooches in this category of dog breed groups tend to be your more exotic breeds and don’t have many generalizations you can make about them as a whole.
They all tend to have different sizes, coats and general appearances that make them unique from most other dogs. One thing they do have in common though is that they will make great companions due to their affectionate nature.
