Temperament |
An excellent
companion dog, the Eurasier is calm, quiet,
even tempered and friendly. Watchful and alert. Affectionate and loyal towards
its family, yet reserved and shy with strangers, without being timid or
aggressive. Socialize well when young with other dogs and people. This breed
forms a strong bond with its family. They are intelligent and quick to
learn. Consistent training should start early. Responds well to training,
however one must understand the breed in order to train them successfully. This
breed does not respond well to ruthless discipline, you must use soft reprimand;
firm, but not harsh. Proper human to canine communication is a must. They can get bored if the training becomes repetitive. If they sence the owners are meek or passive they may become stubborn. Many Eurasier excel at agility. Playful, a stable minded Eurasier will get along
well with children who have good pack leader skills. They are not guard dogs,
but make good watchdogs, barking at things that are unfamiliar to them. This
breed rarely barks with out good reason; however, as with any breed, some are
more vocal than others and you need to communicate to them when enough is enough. Do not allow them to bark at you when they want something as that is a dog displaying dominancy behaviors. Usually does well with other dogs. |

Living Conditions |
Does not do
well in an outside kennel, chained up or confined to one room. They do best when
they are part of the family. If they are left isolated and or left alone for
long periods of time they can be come depressed. Calm and quiet indoors, active
and playful outdoors, enjoying some good action. |
|
Exercise |
A good
amount of exercise is a must. Needs daily
long walks, where the dog is made to heel beside or behind the human holding the lead, as instinct tells a dog the leader leads the way, and that leader needs to be the human. They should have a safe
enclosed area to run free. |
