Personality and Behavior

- He's wary of strangers
- He doesn't always get along well with other dogs

Training
- He's not easy to train. You will need patience as he is slower than most to learn obedience commands.
Shedding
- He sheds quite a bit of hair. You'll find some hair stuck to your clothes, couch and carpets.
Grooming / Maintenance
- His short coat only needs to be brushed occasionally. However, because it sheds you may find yourself brushing it once a week, or more, to minimize the hair in your home (what you remove with a brush doesn't end up on the couch!).
