    Hi.

    Just wondering anyone have experiences with this dog, currently looking at one. Now I know they seem to be a rare breed in Ireland so does anyone know a reputable breeder for these dogs in Ireland?

    I'd strongly suggest you foster one first.They are not for the in experienced dog owners.it's a strong and loyal breed. But stubborn.Prone to separation issues. Foster one first.

    A friend of mine got one for her daughter as it was cute and fluffy thinking it would be a lovely cuddly pet! - sadly they didn't do their homework! It was very aloof, hated being fussed over, hated being indoors unless on the kitchen floor where it was coolest, and it would let off a screaming bark if excited! Couldn't be let off the lead as it was dog aggressive and had a very high prey drive and was a very high energy dog. So not a breed for the inexperienced at all! Cute though!!:D

    Someone near me has one, and I've spoken to him while he was out walking it. He says it's about as close to a dog shaped cat as you can get :D
