Personalities of Dogs

In this lens we will try to explore the various personality types of individual dogs and group them. This lens does not select a breed of dog but rather addresses the personality that the individual dog may have and give a general overview.

Personality Types Of Dogs 

Personality Traits

Each breed of dog has its own personality profile.
Within that profile each dog is unique within that profile and has its own personality. Some are manipulative and like to dominate their owners while others are cooperative and responsive with their owners. All types of dogs can be trained but each type of dog must be trained with a different approach. What your dog has experienced in life and what his background is will affect his ability to be trained and what type of training he/she will need.

Compromising Dog 

Comromise

This type of dog is neither dominant nor submissive. Most dogs have a mixture of both types of behaviour in their personalities. Depending upon the situation the dog will act accordingly.

Cooperative And Responsive Dog 

This dog is the easiest to train.. They listen to people and investigate theme and will respond quickly to training. More so than the submissive, fearful dogs or exceedingly dominant individuals.

Cooperative dogs will respond enthusiastically when being trained.

Distraction 

Distractive dog

The dog that is more interested in playing with other dogs than obeying their owners may not have been properly socialized with people as puppies. It is best to train this type of dog individually with a human than in a class with other puppies or dogs in a class.

The Submissive Dog 

Submission

The submissive dog avoids eye contact, they tuck their tails betwee their legs, and they will collapse in fear when a person approaches them.

The Manipulative Dog 

Manipulation of the dog owner

The dog can manipulate the owner by pretending to be submissive. The dog that is manipulative may scratch at the owner and beg for attention until picked up or petted. These dogs need to be ignored as hard as it can be at times.

Domination and Confidence in a Dog 

Naturally confiden dog personalities

Some dogs, regardless of the breed, have naturally confident personalities. The dog's gender can also affect its trainability. Neutered dogs and dogs that are not in season are easiest to train. An unneutered male dog can be more dominant and confident. As a result, more difficult to train and less responsive.

The Insecure Dog 

Insecurity and submissiveness

A submissive dog can become overwhelmed during training. Training must be slow and gentle with this personality type. Commands should not be issued harshly. If you have never trained a dog before and your dog has this personality type, you may want to consider a professional dog trainer for help.

Pecking Order of Dogs 

A dog must always obey the humans of the family. A dog can display its dominance to the outside world by barking at a stranger or if it hears a strange noise but it should stop barking if its master tells it to do so. Remember that the dog is the member of the pack. The human is the leader of the pack.

    Hi
    Just wanted to wish you success with your business and I enjoyed your lens I have been a dog owner since I could walk and have had a little bit of every personality.

    I am a iOffer seller who recently created a new club on iOffer to encourage sellers to create lens. I would be thrilled if you could join. I haven't located very many ioffer sellers with lens on squidoo.
