Our dog is intelligent , playful and inquisitive she obeys commands most of the time. She does like to bark at anything she thinks is invasive to the yard. She absolutely loves to track with her nose to the ground when walking on the leash,she does get distracted easily by smells she is tracking, but is easily re-focused . If let off leash she can outrun very quickly, and loves the chase. Cookie is a good example of this breed with great temperment and is outright fun for our family to have around <3 Read more blogs by siri | Read more blogs in First Post
