This intelligent, energetic dog
is gentle in nature. They love to work and to hunt. They are not meant
to be indoor dogs and require regular exercise and play. They are quite
trainable but are also considered to be stubborn, so training takes patience.

and other pets is recommended. They make good watch dogs and are loyal
to and protective of their family. |
