It is widely believed in society that a dog's character depends on the size of the breed.
This is how the belief even emerged that small dog breeds are easier to care for, and they themselves are more docile.
This myth was dispelled by the head of the Russian Cynological Federation, Vladimir Golubev, reports Pravda.ru.
In fact, the assertion that a dog's height and character are somehow interconnected is a misconception.
Miniature dogs are no easier to care for than larger dogs. And that doesn't mean small dogs are safe.
Small breeds are prone to strange behavior, such as unprovoked barking or unprovoked aggression towards passersby or other dogs.
At the same time, caring for them requires the same amount of attention as if we were talking about a large breed of dog, like a St. Bernard.
The only thing that influences the character and behavior of an animal is the conditions of keeping, upbringing and training methods.
Previously we talked about what dogs can see that people can't.
