So we took our Voitto to a temperament test. The test is really meant for working ang guarding dogs (german shephards, rottweilers and such) so if he'd be that the points would not be very flattering. Since he is a companion dog, he's great at that! The test covered differend areas, like willingness to fight, friendliness, performance under stress, willingness to defence etc.

View attachment 86468The test with the stick play also tested willingness to fight...he took the stick and played, but also gave it up easily, so low score on that

Here this figure was dragged towards him and he was supposed to bark and defend Miska...first he did, but half way..he went behind Miska...but good thing was that he made friends with the "attacker" soon...
there was also a barrel that was dropped from a ramp behind him, he got scared, but recoved quickly.
The funniest part was when he was left alone tied to a wall and a guy came at him waving a stick. He was supposed to defend himself, but instead he looked at him straight in eye, without even backing and wiggled his tail. The guy said that that had never happened before. I think Voitto remembered him( the guy in the first pic) and thought: "C'mon man, what are you doing...stop that nonsence, you were just petting me"...
Last test was a loud gun shot, but he was OK with it.
He wasn't OK with the collar though...They had to put it real tight, for safety, they said...Yep, he was really scary...
So he is a well behaved perfect companion dog, who won't hurt a fly, and we still need to keep our doors locked.
