They are a medium size, short coated dog, elegant in appearance with a strong square build and moderate body structure- muscular and powerful enough for endurance and agility. Energetic, watchful, alert, agile, fearless, determined, intelligent and loyal, these dogs have all the prerequisites to be an excellent watchdog and companion. They are territorial and can be quite possessive of their owners and property. The ideal height at the highest point of the withers for a dog or bitch is 17 - 20 inches. Also, they are not considered a good breed for people with children. They will instinctively protect their owner and often bite first and think later. Also, they will not back away from disputes with other dogs. Country of origin: Germany
