For the Perky!!The Schipperke(Skip-Perky)!!
The Schipperke is alert, active, inquisitive, intelligent and hopelessly devoted to his master. They are a beloved playmate and a natural watchdog with a piercing bark. (They can be a touch yappy.) Schips seem to know that they are smart and cute, and if you let them, they will take over your household. These are extremely active dogs. They are confident and independent, and can be a bit willful. The Schipperke has excels at seemingly everything the dog world has to offer: obedience, agility, flyball, rally, heelwork to music, herding, tracking -- they've even been known to enjoy a game of patty cake. This is the breed that can do it all. Unless you ask him to sit around and do nothing. This he cannot handle and will begin strewing your trash and dirty laundry all over the house. Schips are rather famous for being devoted to children and are very protective of them. This doesn't always hold true though when dealing with an adult Schip who hasn't been around children much. This can be a dominant breed. The Schip has a good nose on him and if he finds a scent that interests him, he will follow it, regardless of where you want him to go. They have a tendency to explore once they've escaped. They like to be on the go and do best with a family who feels the same. Schips make excellent hiking, camping, and traveling companions. They do well with other dogs, as well as cats, horses and cows. They don't like to be left home without you, as they feel they have a right to be involved in whatever you are doing. They want to be where the action is. And beware if the action is in your flowerbed, as these are skilled diggers. They also don't seem to be in any hurry to housetrain. These are enthusiastic, joyful, highly energetic dogs who are fearless and devoted. They are vigilant and consider it their job to protect their family and property.Well That's All folks join us next time on The Barkout

The Famous Border of Collie
Border Collies, known as the workaholics of the dog world, are a lot of work. They need a job to do, whether its herding, agility, flyball, Frisbee championships ... anything to keep their overactive brains busy! If you don't give a Border Collie the physical and mental exercise he needs, he will destroy everything. And I'm not just talking about socks and teddy bears. I'm talking: mattresses, recliners, carpets, and wooden stairs! They can also seriously harm themselves by ingesting foreign objects. Some have even eaten nails and knives! And a Border Collie can total the interior of a car. These athletic, working dogs are extremely athletic and need hours of exercise each day! They need to run, and they need a purpose. Some well-meaning parents make the mistake of assuming they can just set their Border Collie free in the backyard and that will suffice. It doesn't even come close. You need to challenge your Border Collie. The breed is bred to be challenged! They have a strong herding instinct and they will try to herd anything, including children. While the dog means no harm, it can be frightening to a small child to be herded by a Border Collie, and if the child tries to run away from the scene, the Border Collie might nip at the child's heels or bum. They are not trying to be cruel. They've been bred to be herders. But it still hurts to be nipped. Border Collies are excellent with children, but it takes vigilance on the part of the parents, to make sure both children and dog learn how to interact with each other. Border Collies also try to herd cars, which puts them in danger of being hit. Border Collies do best in a fenced-in yard. But be aware that Border Collies are extremely athletic and can jump over a six foot fence if they decide it's worth the trouble. Border Collies will not necessarily do well with other animals in the house either, because ... you guessed it -- they will try to herd them. It is impossible to train the herding out of a Border Collie. These dogs are highly intelligent and will try to over-think everything. They've been called the most intelligent breed in the world. So prospective owners should ask themselves, "Do I want a dog who's smarter than me?" But for the right person, the devoted, passionate Border Collie parent, the breed makes an affectionate and extraordinarily devoted pet. They are sweet and sensitive. They are even known for reading their owner's minds (which could be a good or bad thing). They are not avid barkers, but can be good watchdogs, as they are reserved with strangers and are naturally protective of their family and home. Border Collies love to entertain themselves, which might end up entertaining you. Many of them can become obsessed with a red penlight, a housefly, a ceiling fan, or a siren on television. Border Collies can have hilarious personalities! So, if you want a full-time job, a dog who can turn doorknobs, a psychic friend, a living alarm clock, and you think you can keep up with him (or rather, one step ahead of him), then the Border Collie is for you!That's all folks join us next time on The Barkout

They just love to snuggle up and nap in a person's lap. They don't require much exercise, but will require lots of your attention. They will want to be included in whatever you are doing, and have been known to be a bit nosey. They make a natural watchdog and will bark a warning when anyone approaches your home. They are distrustful of strangers. However, they are also known to bark recreationally. They will do well with other dogs, but be aware that the Pom doesn't know that he is tiny, and will be fearless with a dog of any size, which can get him into trouble. You will have to supervise your Pom when he is interacting with other dogs. You will also need to supervise young children to ensure they are respectful and gentle with their Poms. Poms can resemble the cutest stuffed animal in the world, and small children can unwittingly trample them. A Pomeranian will make you an excellent, loving companion and will entertain you each and every day.The Pomeranian is very intelligent and easy to train. He learns new commands very fast.
The Pomeranian is a very heavy shedder. He sheds an awful lot of hair! You'll find hair all over your home, stuck to everything! You'll probably even find it in the butter!Well that is all for now join me next time on the The Barkout.
