Male v/s Female
From many years of
raising both male and female dogs, I have found that I personally favor the
males over the females. They are much more family oriented and protective
toward their family.
Males are much sweeter
and obey better. A male is much more lovable and willing to do anything to
please you. They love your approval and generally seek out your affection.
Most people do not want
males because they think all males will mark their territory by lifting the
leg and peeing on everything in site. I have learned from my past clients
who have purchased my puppies say if the males are neutered at an early age
say 4 to 6 months, they do not mark their territory, having never gotten
male hormones due to this early neutering.
In the dog pack makeup,
females usually rule the roost, determine pecking order. A male is satisfied
that he has a yard and a family to love. Females are higher strung and from
time to time will fight with other dogs. They often hold grudges for days at
a time when they have been corrected for doing something wrong. If your
female is not spayed then you also have a heat cycle every 6 to 8 months.
This can also lead to unwanted puppies to care for and find homes for in the
future.
A friend once said the
males are born to serve us; the females are born for you to serve them.
Please consider a male as your next best
friend.
