Greater Swiss Mountain Dog Entlebucher Mountain Dog Breeder Puppies Adult Dogs

This is a wonderful breed with all the intelligence, personality, agility
and loyalty you could ask for packed into a sturdy little package. It is
important to make sure that this little herder is compatible with your
personality and lifestyle, as this is a dog that will be happiest if it is
by your side every waking hour. The Entlebucher, while being
independent and self confident, is nonetheless very attached to its
people and must be made a part of the family. One of the greatest
qualities of this breed is its unwavering devotion to its master. This is
not a breed that will do well if left in the back yard, unless, of course,
that is where the family is as well.
The breed is territorial and slightly suspicious of strangers, making it
a competent watch dog. They have an impressive bark and naturally
announce the arrival of newcomers. While they are naturally
confident and social dogs, socialization and training is required.
Entlebuchers are generally regarded as great dogs with children,
although there may be exceptions. The additional time required to
train a smart, willful dog is a major consideration for a busy parent.
Due to the Entlebucher’s keen sense of social hierarchy, the head of
the household will need to be actively involved in the training. This is
an active, physical breed and loves to play and rough house. Once
trained to be gentle with children, however, an Entlebucher is an
excellent play mate and may even round up your kids like a small
herd of cattle.
