I'd never choose one as a dog for me,if it showed up i'd take one in but they jsut are not for me. But I have met a few I have just loved. A frineds frined had a wiry haired one who ran circles around you untill you picked him up by the tail adn swung him around on this rug. He was a strange dog. He herded their chickens too. But all the others I hav emet and not liked were also horribly bred, untrained dogs so that could have a lot to do with it.
