ENTIRELY PETS
The breed standard describes the breed as "sober" (meaning "marked by seriousness,
gravity, or solemnity of conduct"), his movement as slow and rolling, and as having a calm
expression. Individual dogs may vary in behaviour and temperament, and puppies must be
well socialized.
As with all very large dogs, they are not the dogs for beginners. Dogs of this size and type
have the potential to be a danger to others if not well socialized at an early age, and are
recommended only for the experienced dog handler who has the time to socialize and train
the dog. This Mountain dog matures slowly, are very independent, and often do not
respond to traditional force methods of dog obedience training. They are extremely
territorial and will protect the sheep, households, and families they feel were placed under
their protection. They are not aggressive but protective and are said to get along quite well
with children.
