À savoir avant de vous décider

Important behavioral traits that potential owners should understand:

CriticalAgressivité Territoriale

L'Aidi considère tout ce qui est en dehors de son unité familiale comme une menace potentielle. Cela inclut les facteurs, les voisins et les enfants en visite. Son réglage par défaut est la méfiance, et ils ne se 'réchauffent' pas rapidement.

CriticalAgressivité Entre Individus du Même Sexe

Forte propension à l'intolérance envers les chiens du même sexe, apparaissant à la maturité sociale (18-24 mois). Peut dégénérer en combats sérieux si une séparation stricte n'est pas appliquée. Un Aidi mâle avec un autre chien mâle est une bombe à retardement.

CriticalGarde des Ressources

En tant que race de survie issue d'environnements difficiles, ils peuvent garder la nourriture, les jouets ou l'espace avec intensité. Il s'agit d'un trait génétique de survie qui les rend dangereux dans les foyers avec de jeunes enfants.

ChallengeIndépendance

Ils ne cherchent pas à plaire. S'ils sont occupés à patrouiller ou à enquêter sur une odeur, ils vous ignoreront probablement. Ils ont été élevés pour prendre des décisions autonomes sans direction humaine.
