Breed Character

[SarahAnn]

See, that's my concern. You can only research a breed so much until you just have to go out and actually interact with one (or several for a better range). My problem is that I don't know anyone in the US who has a CWD. There are plenty overseas but none that I know of here and I find that annoying.
When I got my cat from a rescue she was advertised as a domestic short hair calico - but she's now twelve pounds, has long thick fur, and has all of the traits common to a Maine Coon! She has an very different personality from when I first brought her home. I am just worried about how a CWD's personality would change. A dog that is outgoing becomes shy and it's something I worry about. My cat is now more outgoing but she's not a bold cat. I do appreciate the knowledgeable answers I'm getting though!

Thanks for the information. I'm looking forward to traveling. Hopefully I'll go overseas for a while and work. I've had to use my sense of humor with my cat plenty of times. I just can't stay mad at her!
I trained her to use the toilet and it was interesting to see how cats are! I've had people tell me you can't do anything with a cat but those people don't know animals very well I guess. I've been told that CsWs can take a little longer to housetrain than other dogs. They can be incredibly destructive when left alone and will chew things to pieces.
I would love to live outside city limits. I'm not a city girl and I miss the wide ope spaces.n

Some of them are hard to housetrain, some of them aren´t. Some of them are destructiv some of them are not (though in general they tend to be). As with all breeds it depends on their training and their owner.
When you come overseas you are very wellcome to visit our place.

I'd say that some are hard to housetrain and others are very easy to housetrain. They are just too individual in most aspect of their lives. What you can be sure of is that they are very intelligent (and have good memory), very inquisitive and very lively. Sometimes too much so. It's up to you how you can take advantage of these qualities.

Thank you so much for the invitation Ina! I'll be sure to visit.
