| I am often asked what's the difference between a boy puppy and a girl puppy? I will tell you, not a whole lot. I see no difference in raising a boy or girl dog, be it train-ability, personality or behavior, they are very much alike. I have both and I love them both. Most people stick with what they have had in the past. I do think that boys are more affectionate than girls and will be more attached to you as a family than a girl dog will be. Girls can attach to one member of the family rather than the whole family itself. This is not the case with all boys and girls though just my thoughts. I do think boy dogs have a bad rap with people thinking they will lift their leg on the sofa or will be aggressive.....If neutered by 6 months of age boy dogs will not develop these bad habits. They don't even think to life their leg until they are about 10 months old so if the neutering takes place long before this time they never ever do it and they actually will squat like girls. Which ever you decide to get you will be forever happy....boy or girl....it doesn't matter one bit. |
| Boy....or...Girl~what should I get?? |
| This is Kenny, he is one of my lab puppies born and raised here! He is not neutered and lives inside 100%, he does not pee or mark in the house at all. He is absolutely in love with me and must be everywhere that I am. When he was little baby every morning I would let him out of his crate he would get on his hind feet and give me a hug. I thought that was just the sweetest thing I had ever seen.... well guess what? Till this day he still has to give me a hug every morning when I let him out of his crate... he puts his front feet in the air and I have to hug him..all 80+pounds of him!! |
| This is Lindy, I must say of all my dogs she makes me laugh the most. She is so funny, she just has to have something in her mouth at all times. She loves to carry my shoes around and especially my slippers when I take them off, sometimes she will even try to take them off me so she can have them in her mouth. She doesn't chew them up she just likes the attention I give her because it's just so darn funny. She loves to sit in the chair with me and she puts her head right on my side and snuggles to go to sleep, this is so sweet. I really know that Lindy truly loves me. |
| I really believe that be it a boy or girl dogs will be how you raise them. All my dogs are crazy about toys, they love the attention I give them when they have toys so now they all carry them around where ever they go so they can hear me tell them how cute they are. |
