Appenzeller
The Appenzeller is a breed that originated in Switzerland. It is one of the four Swiss Mountain Dogs and is primarily known for its herding abilities. Appenzellers have a medium-sized and muscular build, with a height between 19-23 inches (48-58 cm) and weighing around 49-71 pounds (22-32 kg). They have a short and dense coat with a tricolor pattern of black, tan, and white. Appenzellers are known for their intelligence, agility, and high energy levels. They are active dogs that require regular exercise and mental stimulation to prevent boredom and destructive behavior. Appenzellers excel in various dog sports such as obedience, agility, and herding trials. They are also loyal and protective of their families, making them good watchdogs. Appenzellers can adapt to indoor living, but they need plenty of outdoor activities and a securely fenced yard to fulfill their exercise and herding instincts. Early training and socialization are crucial to ensure they become well-behaved and well-adjusted companions.
