I just read an article about Havana Silk Dogs, and I'm starting to really like the breed! What really got me interested in them was that they have a strong herding instinct, and the Havana Silk Dog Association of America requires all of their dogs to be health tested to be registered with them. (I think this is brilliant!!)
I also read that they have a great temperament, they do well in agility and obedience, and they were popular as circus dogs!
I want a dog that I can do agility with, and also teach tricks! We have chickens and ducks, so I'm really interested in owning a herding dog. I'm a bit hesitant about getting a Border Collie, ACD, or Aussie because they are so…. extreme!!! I'm starting to think a Havana Silk Dog might be a good match for me!
Does anyone have any experience with these dogs, or know anything about them? There isn't much information about them online. I really want to know about how they do with agility and herding.
