**Boys verses Girls **
Some people believe that female dogs make
better pets; most calls are from people wanting "sweet girls". Most
people don't think females display behaviors such as marking and humping.
However,
this is not true!
In the dog-pack makeup, females usually rule the roost.
The females are usually more independent, stubborn, and territorial than their
male partners. Most fights usually break out between two females.
Males on the other hand are usually more affectionate, attentive, and more
demanding on attention. They are attached to their owner and family, and
are easily motivated with food and praise. They also tend to be
more steadfast, reliable, and less moody than females. Neutered males
rarely exhibit secondary, sexual behavior, such as humping, marking, or lifting
their legs. Females also have periods of being "in heat" unless
she is spayed. Some days she will be sweet and affectionate, the next day
reserved and drawn. She will leave a scent for males to wander into your
yard.
Before deciding on male or female also consider other dogs that may be around your home, having your new pet, either Male or Female, spay or neutered may be in your and your pets best interest.
