kennelled or indoors/ difference in work abilities

[joshmarto 13]

just a question,do you think lurchers or any other sighthound that lives indoors would be a better worker than a kennelled dog and vice versa,whats your opinions on this one?.

No difference whatsoever, imho,

No.

 

Although some folk will get more out of a dog with it being in the house / in the kennel etc.

Agree but maybe a bit more one to one in the house

keeping indoors makes em soft.

Why would that be ? They should be just as comfortable, warm, dry, clean and draught proof in a kennel as in a house, if kennelled corectly.

 

Cheers.

would of thought there would be more of a bond with a house kept dog,would this not have the dog working better?

[Ideation 8,216]

Ferret features is a bit special i think, like the kind of special person, that isn't allowed out on their own.

 

Josh - in some cases you are probably right, but if you put the time etc in, you can spend just as much 'valuable' time with the dog if it's kenneled, and get just as strong a bond.

more trouble in the house, far better for all if they can be kennelled. good for all concerned to have their own space, although i have a dog in the house and dogs in kennells

I like having a dog in the house, stops me being lonely Also, it's a handy security device. Wouldnt have more than one living in though!
