Daisy was pretty hyper for the first couple of years but since she turned 5 years old she is much calmer. She cuddles and snuggles more than ever and goes into the bedroom alone to sleep on the bed in the evening. I am really loving how much calmer she is now. She will actually follow me out to the car and jump in instead of running away as soon as the gate is opened. Teddy has always been laid back. |
My girls are pretty mellow most of the time. But once in a while they get in crazy mode and get hyper. But they just want to play with each other and just have fun. I think some people don't give their dogs enough play time and enough exercise to stimulate their minds and drain their energy. No matter how busy we are, we make sure our girls get enough exercise. In the winter time, they get 1 hr of treadmill time a day. |
My little Bella will be a year old in May and she is a little ball of energy and I love it! She is a little sleepy head the majority of the day while I am at school, so by the time I come home she has TONS of energy! I plan to get her a companion after I graduate so they can run out each other's energy...because she keeps her mommy pooped :rolleyes: |
I should be good at this poll since I have so many:rolleyes::p I would say mellow, puppies are going to be a little crazy at first, but it seems when they turn around a year old they calm down a bunch. I only have one hyper one, and he is the one I took in as a resuce, my kids called him prozac:D |
I put that Zoe is very even tempered but thought I would add that she does get excited if we go somewhere and she's always happy to see people or other dogs and then people sometimes think she's crazy hyper but other than those times, she's really laid back. |
I put that Cash is hyper, but manageable. He used to be uncontrollable and I also thought I would have to give him up. It was really heartbreaking for me... here is this adorable pup that I love so much, but he is so naughty that I start thinking he is better off somewhere where people can control him. Persevering, I paid a lot of money to clicker train him and have never looked back. Now he knows a bunch of tricks, we have a great relationship and he is manageable. Coming in at over 2 years, he is now still hyper and crazy sometimes, but he is manageable (at least by me:rolleyes:). I think people need to realize that getting a dog is like getting married. You don't simply give up if things go bad. You have to work at it to make it work and if you do... you will never, ever be sorry.:) |

And tumismom, an hour on the treadmill a day? That's awesome. You must have super yorkies. Overall, it's very encouraging to see how many of us call our pups even-tempered. |
I put that Twinkle is 'hyper but manageable', although I think she's more 'energetic' than hyper:) she's only 8 months which I guess has a lot to do with it. She would chase a ball or run around in the garden all day if I let her....I think she picks up on the energy of my children who are always on the go! I love her nutty personality - wouldnt change it for the world!:D xxx |
Bailey is very hyper but manageable! I find that he is the most hyper when he wants my attention... He'll be 5 year's old in May and he's still all puppy!!! :) |
Millie is only hyper when her cousins come over and she's torturing them. :) |
Oliver and Brooklyn, even as pups have never been hyper or out of control! They are not yappers either. They are very controllable :D |
Each of my furkids (5) are different. My oldest (16) is pretty even tempered except when you get in his face (he don't like that). My 8, 7 & 2 year olds are very even tempered. And my newest 4 month old (too early to tell). :aimeeyork:aimeeyork:aimeeyork |
Even tempered Beatrice is now almost 18 months old and she is very mellow.It's only the last 3 or 4 months that she's started to play more forcefully and she gets pretty wound up when she plays now,I love it because when we got her at 9 months of age she didn't play at all.She was one of those timid types,but she's becoming more bold and confident now. Next week we are bringing home a little half-brother ,we are calling him Sebastien.He is very quiet,compared to his 2 brother. This is why we chose him over the other 2.We felt that he and Beatrice would compliment each other.:p |
Kassie is a lazy sloth unless she goes on a mission that she wants a treat . Then she will stand and squeak at the treat door until you give in and get her one. Kenji was extremely hyper and had major seperation anxiety to add to it. He never sat still and had energy plus right up until he passed at 18yrs old. |
my boy is very even tempered and very well behaved. yes he does get excited and he does like to play. I definalty believe this is where discipline and good training comes in. For the ones who want to give up their dogs because they are very hyper, need to realize any animal will need good training and discipline or any animal of any breed can get out of control. :D Maybe if they watch Caesar or Victoria they would see how dogs are out of control. And who do they say who's FAULT it is...LOL ;) |
