...the HOUSEDOGS!

They are specially bred to be clean and easy to house-train, good with kids, non-vocal, calm, loving and eager to please. They should be good with people, yet fine when left alone in the house.

Great focus has been put into breeding out all the hunting, herding, fighting, pulling, guarding, and over-sexed instinct. What remains is a calm, loving dog devoted to his person, and his family, but friendly and sociable to society.

He may be any color, or colors, in any pattern or patterns.

His hair may be any shape. This includes long and fine, fluffy, curly, wiry, scruffy, thick, short, shiny, sleek, self-shedding or barbered, continuously growing, hairless, partially hairless, or plain medium coated.

Although he should be obedient, and well trained, the most important thing is that he be well behaved, eager to please, and sociable.

He must be able to play well with other dogs and with people. He must be the kind of dog you could take into a French restaurant without worrying about his manners.

He may not be a brute, who kills cats, or delights in chasing other animals. He must not only be trained to be nice to other dogs, he must delight in being kind. He should not be a playground bully, even if his ancestors were fighters. He must enjoy the social scene, hanging out with other dogs and people.

All adult Housedogs must start off proving their good nature in one of these parties:

TINY DOGS PARTY - less than 11 LBS & less than 12" at the top of the withers (shoulder blade peak).

SMALL DOGS PARTY - <22 href="http://groups.yahoo.com/group/political_dog_law/message/155">http://groups.yahoo.com/group/political_dog_law/message/155
