Swiss is an energetic, affectionate dog who loves people and has a larger-than-life personality. He’s full of enthusiasm and always excited to meet someone new. His enthusiasm, however, can quickly tip into overstimulation, so he needs a structured, predictable home that can help him stay calm, focused, and balanced. Swiss would thrive in a one-pet household; he’s very reactive around other dogs and would do best in a home without cats or frequent dog encounters. But give him a fenced yard, some space to play, and a person who can match his energy, and he’ll be in his element. We recommend a home with adults or kids over the age of 8 who can manage his strength and energy level. He thrives on routine, clear boundaries, and plenty of mental and physical stimulation. Beneath all that energy is a dog who genuinely loves people. He’s sweet, goofy, and craves connection—he just needs someone willing to guide him. With consistency, structure, and time, Swiss will make a loyal and entertaining companion.
