The Entlebucher’s Temperament:
This is one sturdy little package of a dog! You want intelligence? You got it. You want personality? You got it. You want agility? You got it. You want loyalty? You got it. If you are the type of person, that loves to have a wagging tail by your side at all times, then this is the dog for you, since the Entlebucher is the happiest if he can be by your side every waking hour. Strangely enough, while being a very independent and self confident breed, the Entlebucher, seeks companionship and is very attached to the people that it loves. It must be made a part of the family. One of the greatest qualities – and something to truly respect about this breed- is the loyalty and true devotion it feels to master and family. If you intend to have this dog in the back yard, then this is not the dog for you. Unless, of course you and the family will be there as well.
Being ever-watchful and territorial, an Entlebucher is aloof with strangers. It thus excells at watch-dog duties. They will always let you know when there is an intruder! Although their confidence and social needs are undeniable, they need to be trained and socialized from an early age. Entlebuchers love children in general. An Entlebucher keenly senses and respects social hierarchy, and therefore the head of the household should be the main trainer. This is an active and playful breedthat makes an excellent play mate for children that it grows up with. It looks out for their safety under any circumstances.
