Dog temperament not only varies between breeds, but between individuals within a breed. For example, working breeds are known to be active and may not like to sit still, whereas terriers can be tenacious and quite strong willed.When choosing a dog, you do need to consider body size and grooming requirements. It is, however, equally as important to take into account a dogs temperament. If you have older children, you may be happier with an active dog that will rough and tumble with them.
