Fetch works great!
answer · Appenzell Cattle Dog
I would pick an Appenzeller again without a doubt. They have a great balance of energy and affection, which I love.
answer · Appenzell Cattle Dog
Yes, I would recommend the Appenzeller Sennenhund to active families. They have a lot of energy and love to play. They thrive when they have a job to do and make excellent companions for outdoor activities.
answer · Appenzell Cattle Dog
Our Appenzeller is amazing with kids! She's very friendly and enjoys being involved in their activities. It's crucial to supervise interactions, but her instincts to protect and nurture really shine during playtime. They seem to have a natural affinity for kids, making them wonderful family pets.

They can be quite the characters! Mine once spun around in circles to get my attention; I couldn’t help but laugh.
answer · Appenzell Cattle Dog
You are not imagining it. I stopped expecting dignity. It makes life funnier. We have a running joke in the house that the dog thinks they run security, entertainment, and quality control. Still figuring it out like everyone else, Christopher.
answer · Appenzell Cattle Dog
Never runs out. Ever. Morning run plus afternoon training or we pay for it at night. People think more fetch equals more tired. For this breed it often means more fit and still ready to go. Still figuring it out like everyone else, Christopher.
