I dog sit for breeder friends.
I hate Bernese Mountain Dogs. They are dumb as a box of rocks, they jump all over you. They are way too friendly and happy. But never want to go in their kennels so you have to push them in. Last thing I want is a dog with wet legs climbing all over me that weighs over 100lbs. I also know several breeders of these and they all kind of act like that. I hate it.
I love the Standard Schnauzers. They are immediate in responding when you tell them to go into their runs. The only thing they do is if they know I am there to trim nails they will not come into the inside run and they will stay outside. So I have to trick them and lock them in when I dump the feed.
The Siberians are surprisingly easy to take care of. But their breeder also demands that they behave. They do run their mouths. But immediate on going back into their runs after exercise as well. Even the shy ones are fairly easy to work with.
