Tiff 36 Posted March 21, 2009 Report Share Posted March 21, 2009 I personally haven't owned any but have 2 good friends who have had 3 and 4 over the years, and have seen another dozen or so in different homes (8 were in Flyball/ Agility homes, 4 were protection dogs. Of the ones I knew first hand (that I could say I "knew" ) they were all nice, even temperamented dogs but extremely high prey drive, like a Belgian Malinois on speed. People I know said Dutchies aren't "wired" right, but that wasn't the case with the ones I "knew". Not that it isn't true, just wasn't my experience with them. Their drive could be directed, they weren't "skitty". But they were all similarly bred and heavily trained as pups so maybe that was why? In the right home they were good.
