Working Group

Dogs in the working group are known for their strength, intelligence, and versatility, bred primarily for performing tasks such as guarding property, pulling sleds, and performing water rescues. This group includes breeds like the Saint Bernard, Siberian Husky, and Doberman Pinscher. These breeds are typically larger in size and have robust, muscular builds, equipping them for physically demanding jobs.

Working dogs are characterized by their exceptional loyalty, courage, and trainability. They often have a protective nature, making them excellent guard dogs for homes and property. Due to their size and strength, they require adequate training and socialization from a young age to ensure they are well-behaved and manageable.

Their high intelligence makes them suitable for various roles, including service and rescue work. Despite their work-oriented lineage, many of these breeds also make affectionate and devoted family pets. They generally require regular, vigorous exercise to keep them physically and mentally stimulated.

Owners of working breeds should be prepared to provide them with the attention, training, and exercise they need to thrive. Their large size and high energy levels make them better suited for homes with enough space to accommodate their needs.
