Great breed
Sweet awwwww😍
great dog
Can anyone suggest a good PBGV breeder that ships to Ca.?
A
PBGVs are never lazy, patient, and peaceful.. They are rambunctious, devilish, independent clever dogs. They are easily bored and can be destructive or escape prone when they are. They also live up to their breed standard of, "a good voice freely used." At best they're very talkative; at worst they can be terrible barkers.
Terrible dogs for inexperienced owners and for small children.
That said, I love mine more than anything. If you get one, just be prepared for the a smart, headstrong dog,
I totally agree with you. This man is out of his mind! Actually I don't totally agree with you. They are rambunctious, devilish, independent.... clever? dogs. I don't know what you mean by clever. Mine is the dumbest dog I ever had. Independent and destructive or escape prone. My dog is 11 years old and she still hasn't yet learned "come". Of the lead only in the middle of my city's largest park (300 acres) off she went and came back after an hour or so. I had to be sitting down on the grass because she would keep at least yard away and if I got up to put her back on the leash, off she would go again. The only thing to do is wait sitting, and then spring on her. Then bring her to some place to be washed (I usually booked in advance).
As a puppy she combined submissive peeing, if I greeted her coming home, with separation
@@ODC88888 My little girl (who has passed since i posted) knew all her commands, she just selectively followed them. She also constantly outsmarted any dog sitter she ever had, not matter how many warnings and instructions we gave.
In my experience, scent hounds are the smartest breeds, but too many dog people confuse obedience with intelligence.
@@barrytantlinger1033I am sorry to hear that, how old was she?
How right you are!
I must say that I was being a bit tongue in cheek with writing how dumb is Tipsy (her name) and I did say something about the problem about measuring intelligence. I was thinking of an article on intelligence in dogs were poodles and border collies were first out of 160 breeds ... and beagles in the 140s down the list ( PBGVs are a kind of shaggy beagle, so). The parameters used were how long it took them to understand an order and how long to obey. I am smiling while I write the word "obey": they simply decide if and when.
It's so true that they selectively follow their commands, but their selection process remains a mystery to me to this day.
Btw she has an amazing scent, but it's all wasted on her frantic search for poops :)))
A girlfriend of mine who lives in Milan once sent her Schnapps to the most famous dog trainer in town. After his initial enthusiasm for Schnapps and his "beauty" with the possibility he may even work in films, after a few days he surrendered.
While I was in Germany I sent Tipsy to a beautiful place in the country where she went to Hunde Schule (dog school) but unless it's because of my very poor German or something else she came out without even obeying the "Komm" order which sounds quite good in German and hard to refuse.:)))
I imagine that when I got her I still had too much in mind Wendy my cocker spaniel who followed me closely outside, but at home she stayed close yet keeping a little distance. Tipsy is the opposite, not being a retriever, outside and free she has to run away as far as possible, at home when she is not working she follows the technique of Mary's Lamb ;) and is always next to me.
She is so funny she reminds me a bit of Snoopy with her independence.
She's also very good with other dogs and she measures her strength when playing with them according to their size, although now that she's older she has become more selective and ignores and wants to be ignored by small breeds and Dachshunds especially. She's a real dog and, albeit those funny short legs, PBGVs run surprisingly fast and are very strong. I once contemplated entering her in the Grand National :))
She simply adores children and toddlers, and when I go and sit at my favourite bar outside in a little square were many play, she loves to be stroked and rolls over for them very sweetly.
I think that when I travelled so far to a kennel to get her she was kept in the dirtiest and most squalid conditions and she was already 3 and 1/2 years old.
A kennel which bread PBDVs solely for hunting, not to live in a house.
They were kept in appalling conditions, so much so I consider her almost a rescue dog. That explains the years of submissive peeing.
Yes we had a very bad start, and it lasted long.
Needless to say that we now adore each other and I find her "sense of humor" and irresistible. She makes me laugh so much. I would swear she smiles/laughs back at me.
We sleep together. She takes up most of the bed. I used to be revolted by her smell (they do have a distintive doggy whiff and a bit reminiscing of that of a wild boar) but now I have got used to it... and so must my girlfriends :)))
Unbelievable! but this summer we went together to Sicily on a road trip and for the first time in her life she finally came for swims. She hated wanter (clean water, mud's okay) as much as my cocker spaniel Wendy could hardly be taken out of it, and she would be in the water all day swimming far out on her own.
Tipsy would just run wildly on the beach with a putrefied seagull or stealing toys and picnics from people even far away with me faking indignation and contrition while I just wanted to laugh.
I still miss Wendy and how much fun we had together at the sea.
Tipsy has not, and never be as aquatic as Wendy, but this summer she seemed to enjoy it. A bit.
Altogether they the BBGVs are very sweet and affectionate and always happy.
Great fun when they ask you what breed they are!
Mine seems to have an extra sense of how to be always in the way and, when I sit at a restaurant, she manages to lay down exactly in the way the waiter has to go by to serve at the other tables. You know how long they are when they stretch out. Naturally they often step on her tail. She howls with surprise and upsets the table, but never has she bit anyone who stepped on her.
One more thing that really makes me and everybody else laugh:
She suffers the heat and in the summer when we go to supermarkets or libraries with AC she lays flat on her belly , and so I have to drag her her from shelf to shelf. :)))
I love Tipsy and she has become (probably always was the sweetest of dogs)
But one simply must come to terms with the fact that they have a mind of their own and are "untrainable". By this I don't mean house trained. It took me years, but now, even in the country she would not use the house's garden and I have to bring her for walks outside the garden in the wild side of the property.
But still to this day I praise her and constantly tell her what a good dog she is.
She seems to need and love to feel reinforced by compliments.
"Terrible dogs for inexperienced owners" but a big puzzle also for
