Potential dog breed?

Hi! I’m looking at potential dog breeds, however it will be around 5 years if not longer before I get a dog.

I want to know what it is like to own one of these dogs? What does your daily routine look like? Can you bring your dog out into public spaces?

I would also like some advice on if this dog would fit my lifestyle! I have previously owned Shiba Inus, so have experience owning difficult breeds however I wouldn’t want another experience like that again 😅

I would like a dog that is fun to train, happy to engage in training and games etc, enjoys walking but also has the ability to relax, relax around people etc. especially as I work from home but I would love to do things like scent work etc

I also have no issues with having to groom dogs daily either.

Is there any known behavioural or temperament issues with this breed? Are they known to be dog or people aggressive?

I know that my partner will want a dog that is not super in your face all the time either, but happy to cuddle etc.

I won’t be offended if anyone says this breed isn’t for me either! I’ve got many years to consider different breeds!

Mojo the mix

We were told that he is full Schipperke, clearly we have a Jack Russel mix (or similar) but he’s the goodest boy and we love that curly tail

Onyx!!

hello i’m new to this community i joined because im a young and new dog owner to a 9 month old schipperke (mix). i’m not sure what he’s mixed with im suspecting corgi. the woman who sold him to me sold him for only $100 so i already knew there’d be a catch. he is VERY timid. he has warmed up to me and is very clingy and energetic of course. i think he’s started teething because he’s loving my shoe laces lmao. i’m suspecting he might have been abused in the past?? he’s nervous for the most part but around adult men specifically, he growls and barks. he cannot stand men. he also refused to eat the food he came with and so i switched him over to what my childhood dog ate (purina puppy for now) he is not neutered yet but i DO plan to very soon. he has an appointment for rabies shots on the 21st of august and he also has wellness shots coming up. any advice or answers?
