Whitney - Native American Indian Dog

Short History of the Breed:


NAID dogs are re creations of the type of dogs that traveled with the Native American people. It is highly doubtful that any "authentic" native dog are in existence today.

Physical Description & Size:

Full grown, they range from 50 to 100+ pounds. Coat colors may be solid colors, splash coated, spotted or agouti.

Temperament:

Native American Indian Dogs are very loyal to their families (packs). They can be quite shy and wary around strangers at first, especially men. NAIDs are, like their northern breed brethren, very intelligent and independent. They are generally more comfortable with other dogs than humans, and are usually very well-attuned to the social patterns of a pack.

Needs (exercise, grooming, diet):

Exercise: Most Native American Indian Dogs need moderate exercise.

Health Issues, Life Expectancy:

No known health issues. Native American Indian Dogs will live between 14 and 19 years.

Breed Recognition:

Native American Indian Dogs are recognized by the National Kennel Club (NKC) and the Certified Pet Registry.

We have been NAID owners now for about 3 months. Our puppy is just amazing! He grew really quick...be prepared for a big puppy! He is super smart and is very trainable. He is so eager to please. He is great with strangers and with other dogs. As with any puppy, PATIENCE is key. I can't stress that enough. No dog learns over night. It takes consistency and discipline. Our puppy enjoys the outdoors most of the day, and loves to come inside and be a part of the "pack" at night. If you train and treat these NAID (wolf hybrids) as you would train and treat any dog, you will have a great family pet. For those people that claim their dogs were unresponsive and not loyal... I don't think its right to blame the breed or the breeder. Maybe the problem is with the owner? I'm just saying...;)

I personally thought it was my worst pet purchase. I spent over a grand on the dog. I already own three dogs, and this dog is by far the most timid and unresponsive. In addition, the dog isn't very loyal and always tries to avoid me when I'm calling its name or getting its attention. I really hate to say it, but i think i made a big mistake buying this dog, even as a dog lover its hard for me to find any good traits in this dog.

These dogs are very sweet and excellent tempered. Our dog is very headstrong and independent. It listens very well and everytime we bring it on a walk people comment on its beauty and poise. Owners of loud and noisy dogs are astonished at the NAID's elegance and ability at following instructions.
