Active and calm, dodgy and heartfelt, serious and good-natured, self-centered and passionate... But you can never know what kind of dog you’re getting while buying a puppy. All the puppies are different and you can only imagine what will grow up from yours.

Let’s consider the main characteristics of that breed.

7. THAI RIDGEBACK DOG is more careful in its attitude to stranger unlike the other pariahs, which makes this dog an excellent guard.
8. Very loyal attitude to all the members of the family, perfect companion in walks, very devoted to the owner.

If you DON’T want your dog to...

1. Guard the territory, which to its opinion belongs to you.
2. Take plenty of time for socialization.
3. Hunt the creatures, which are running, follow the “suspicious” objects.
4. Behave very independently at the training courses.
5. To be emotionally sensitive towards the environment in your home and family.
6. To show aggression because of food.
7. To be your shadow. THAI RIDGEBACK DOG desires to be next to his owner always and everywhere.

So if you finally decided to purchase a THAI RIDGEBACK puppy, here are some of the tasks you’ll need to settle down:

1. You should provide the dog with the ability to move a lot. It doesn’t mean you’ll have to make many- hours –walks every day. However, at least once a week it’s absolutely NESSESARY!!! To give way to the energy. Otherwise this energy will go out via gnawing shoes, clothes, furniture etc. Running after a mechanical rabbit can be quite helpful in such case, when your THAI RIDGEBACK DOG will give way to its hunting instincts while galloping after the toy.
2. Socializing is also necessary. There are timid and haughty Thai dogs. This breed requires being accustomed to the city sounds. That is a homage to its origin.
3. Hunting the other animals. The majority of people underestimate the pariahs. They are extremely crafty hunters. But in the process of its “hunting” a neighbor’s cat or a crank toy can get hurt. Pay lots of attention to this during the process of training.
4. Independency of character. THAI RIDGEBACK DOG– is not a golden retriever! THAI RIDGEBACK DOG– is an independent thinker, which doesn’t focus on pleasing you! Lots of dogs are frankly stubborn. You should show the dog all the seriousness of you intentions: that you words completely coincide with your actions.
5. Emotional sensitiveness. Thaidog – is a catalyst of family relations. It dislikes the aggression, shouts, nervousness. If something bad is happening at home, be sure – your THAI RIDGEBACK DOG will find a way to show you its discontent.
