[matty73 4]

everyone talking about right dog for job but what about right dog for your personality if your bit on the loud side then a timid sensetive type dog is not going to suit you and probably wont get best out of dog and on the other side if your quiet and timid a confident strong willed dog is going to lead you a song and dance taking the lead more often than not as it doesnt see you as pack leader and will test your authority any chance it gets it can be bred out of best dogs in world but if your not suited to each other temperament wise your not going to get best out of it( thats just my opinion everybody not saying its right or wrong) has anyone had dog theyve got rid of not because of poor working ability but for the fact you just never gelled with dog

Collies, bulls,saluki,deerhounds ..........) all can have (sensetive) temps. So i think if you are not the calm type person, which i aint myself.I find (all) lurchers xs hard at times to train. Thats why alot get fecked up, because

Think your right there bird, a chilled out fella will usually have a chilled out animal,,the dog can pick up the tension/ emotion in a person as quick as a flash,, which is why they've managed to be in partnership with us for so long,,two predators working together is very unusual in the natural world, unless there is a huge understanding on both sides,,

bad handling no its always the dogs fault mate brought the subject up because young kid local to me got a minshaw lurcher pup bought for him picked he said because it was the biggest and boldest (not the best choice for anyone never mind a inexperienced timid 12 year old ) ive seen him out with it getting dragged about it doesnt take the blind bit of notice of him when off lead as it has no respect for him and obviously sees him as lesser member of pack and takes lead role its a shame as it looks like in right hands it could have made useful dog but as it is its just another spoilt lurcher that sure as night follows day will be for sale shortly (probably described as unspoilt ready to start )

To be honest bud, the boldest pup is not always the worse choice for a novice,,because a pup like that will not take the mistakes which will be made as personal as a shy pup,,im not big into all the dominance stuff, if the dog respects you, he will fall into line, because you control his whole world,,

It is important to pick the temperament that best suits yours, I prefer a bold strong dog as I can't gel with quiet or timid dogs..........

yeah but this kid cant control his bladder never mind a headstrong dog im not talking about dominance im talking mutual respect of which the dog has none through the fact the dog was not suited to his timid tim personality or his ability to train it the dog just wont accept him as pack leader a dog that was more laid back he might of had a chance with would you pick the boldest strongest pup because i kow i wouldnt unless it was something special that caught my eye in a big way even then my head would be sayin your makin a mistake sayin that a quiet pup seen with litter can come out of its shell once away from siblings and become headstrong but my golden rule is never to pick first pup that runs up to me but as with everything everybody is different atb matty
