I've recently experienced Hussi getting a bit "out of sorts," particularly when she's gotten her "summer do," i.e. shaved down for the hot weather. She's a bit bolder and more eager to say hello to friends while we're walking throughout Richmond, especially if she's been inside for a bit too long and is suffering from cabin fever. That being said, I'd like to suggest lots of activity for one's Bouvier as well, particularly if the dog is kept inside by his or herself most of the day while the owner(s) is/are at work. I try to make an effort to take Hussi on a long walk after work before going to class at night just to help her release that pent-up energy. As Linda mentioned in the article, a Bouvier is a super intelligent breed that craves and needs discipline and interaction. When handled correctly, the owner will be well respected by his or her Bouvier and gain a lifelong companion. There's nothing that pleases me more than taking Hussi geocaching or hiking when I can have my buddy by my side. Same thing when I'm walking around the city at night, i.e. I feel so protected knowing Hussi will take care of me should anything happen. Don't think I'd have someone coming up and begging me for money when there's an 80 lb. dog by my side giving them a "make my day" look. :) Thx, Linda! Excellent advice, Linda.
