Character
The first thing that amazed me was how smart these dogs are. They learn so fast that if you want to learn a new trick, that you only have to show them 2-3 time's before they get it. Apart from that they are really energetic which is perfect for active family's. The more outside the better. I've never seen Dakota down or not in the mood to play. She is always so happy and ready to go. This breed is very devoted to their owner and family, they would do anything for you. That's why they make a perfect dog sports dog. They really love to run in the woods, chase squirrels or bunny's, swimming, play fetch, other dogs, ... Other pets are no problem if they have seen them when they where puppy.
