A small, fox-faced Japanese hunting dog with a curled tail. Clean and independent, but stubborn and often touchy with strangers and other dogs, so not an easy first dog.
๐ Experienced owners who respect an independent personality and will train patiently with rewards.
โ People who want a cuddly, obedient dog, or homes where young children will constantly grab and hug it.
A short-legged, big-eared herding dog from Wales with a famously fluffy rear. Bright and lively, but it sheds heavily and needs careful weight and back management.
๐ People who can live with lots of hair and want a cheerful, active companion for daily walks and games.
โ Anyone bothered by shedding or barking, or who won't stick to strict portion control.
