Dog owners have to decide whether they want to have a more pleasant or a strong-willed dog.
Little soul or beast - but not both
Family O. had before buying a dog and thought it all planned: The Jack Russell Terrierin Baffy should be there, and Mrs. O. immediately went to the education: Three times a week she went to the dog park with Baffy, only to puppy school, then in the young dog group, then Agility. Baffy was all his heart and soul. But Mrs. O. was dissatisfied by the month. And as Baffy was grown, was Mrs. O. certain: It was not the dog, which she had wished.
Baffy was sociable and friendly to all and sundry. Yes. But no sooner had Mrs O. them off the line, she had nothing else romp in mind than with other dogs and people. Mrs. O. was air for them. Baffy was upbeat and confident, but she was neither affectionate nor affection to. Pats to her was nothing walks with Mrs. O. found it boring. And as a watch and guard dog, she was a "pronounced rivet": Sticking to its people and to protect them, not at all interested in the Baffy ... That dogs - also without guard dog training - to protect their territory and their pride that even delicate tiny - at a pinch - overpowering opponents at bay, which is well known. And for many people-friendly approachable family dog ??owes his quiet life of the police, which says: "A dog in the house is better than any alarm system", or the expert formula: "A dog who loves his people, defended him."
The guard instinct is innate
Dogs are pack animals, and they guard "their" pack station. Approaching anything unusual, they give sound: Even the "silent" whimpering African Basenjis when a stranger approaches, and also the most hospitable Samoyed "reports" once before he welcomes the stranger. The content of the message is always the same: "Warning! Because what happens! All children into hiding, all adults here! "Why thieves avoid houses with dogs. Dogs also - compared to other animals - less "flight distance" against attackers. They flee not the same, they will wait and decide at the last moment. In the U.S., the hunters have therefore developed a "test" to wild dogs, which may be more driven to distinguish from wolves and coyotes, which are allowed to hunt can not be everywhere: you are near a hunter a puppy camp, and the proctor "bitch "withdraws quietly to let the puppies grasp and pick up without a fight - then the young wolves or coyotes. Makes the bitch on the other hand third, they called together the whole pack and even bite the little puppy, what it's worth, those are wild dogs.
A dog is the way you treat him
Dogs defend themselves and their boys against men. Whether it however necessary even defend the "almighty" herd boss, which is dependent on innate and learned behaviors - and the relationship they have to their herd boss: If a dog of his people always treated as a "four-legged child," then He also behave like a child. He will respond in case of danger to the alarm call of the great - and put yourself first in safety.
If a dog is treated by his people as "Omega wolf", which is in the family pack order-bottom, he will save himself from danger behind the legs of the big "alpha wolf": Omega-Alpha Wolves defend their non-wolf. This is what the himself - otherwise he would not alpha wolf. Get a dog but felt that he was "the odd man out" is that no one takes him seriously, that all rumn�rgeln to him, then he says goodbye sometime. He comes only to eat and sleep, "home" and looks for another pack, which he defended bravely. Defense and courage have nothing to do with size and power: Delicate tiny can be "heroes" and big giant "Schlappis".
Brave is not the dog that is constantly defending itself against anything and everything, or that no one goes out of their way brawl. Shows the courage, which is, and will remain there - even if he knows that it would be safer and better to get out of the danger zone. This "Still" implies a bond. No dog defends a strange pack. Courage, even in the best plants wither if not reliable, everyday commitment is there, if the mutual respect is missing. Courage is innate any dog. What is innate is a willingness to a pack of more or less to connect closely and in this pack then - more or less - to take responsibility themselves: be courageous so only the dog that is ready and willing, even one's own herd boss now and then sulky and contradict confident. And that - despite or because of this stubbornness - is respected by the entire pack.
The angelic dog, friendly and easy to handle, which copes with all, never contradicted, never makes trouble, the but - in the hour of need - rushes archangel same from the sky and protects its people, you do not exist: people friendly, obedient dogs are also in the hour of need humane and obedient. And courageous dogs - including unnecessarily - own up to the stubborn.
