So my friend who has Snip loves him, a lot. But she is constantly telling me how much other people love him. (she leaves him with friends if she is busy for the day sort of thing) They all think he is just the best.
Snip is 5 now, very well mannered. Obedient, walks on a loose leash (even in down town Toronto with all its distractions), house trained, fine on public transit, in stores, doesn't bug people when in crowded elevator.. etc etc.
When she borrowed Kaiden in the summer (to see if she could handle a dog.. Kaiden loves all humans equally so its not biggy for him to go live with someone) Same deal, he was told he was welcome everywhere he went.
(now forgetting these are a JRTs lol, and not normally what people think of as fantastic urban dogs) Why aren't dogs like this in demand? Why is it people will drop $$$ on a puppy that knows nothing, will disrupt your sleep, need training, need more vet costs etc. But people don't want to take adult dogs. I mean I get the whole awww cute puppy. Yet soo many people just want a well mannered pet, but don't have the time to put into training one.
(by people I am not really referring to chazers.. more to JQ Public types)
