So, you have made a choice of a certain breed of dog, but there is another choice - a puppy cable or a bitch. Let's try to figure it out and make the right choice before buying.

Some people, when they call, are immediately determined with the sex of the dog, as they studied the breed in detail and for a long time, and many think only after they call our kennel, and we ask you for a boy or a girl, and then a stupor.

Let's look at all the pros and cons of a girl's puppy.

As a rule, girls are more obedient and try to stay close to the owner, they can rarely run away. Bitches are easier to educate, as their character is soft, they are usually more gentle and affectionate than males. Another important plus is the ability to quickly go to the toilet on the street, in apartments the bitches do not go to the toilet (only in the tray) due to their physiology of cleanliness. Only during estrus they can mark the bushes, the rest of the time it is enough for them to sit down once, twice and you can go home.

The downside may be the following: estrus at this time you need to protect it from cables when walking and keep it on a leash. Female dogs go into heat twice a year and last about two and a half weeks. Most often girls are bought by women.

Pros and cons of Kobel.

A male who loves to play pranks and adventures can follow a dog in heat on the street and run away. Therefore, always keep males nearby, especially in large cities.

Males are very brave and with age they will strive to take the place of the leader in your family, so you need to educate him correctly and make it clear who is in charge in the house. If you offend him greatly, he may hold a grudge against you. One of the most unpleasant minuses of a male is that when he enters puberty, he can start marking at home, so you need to wean him from doing this and stop him in the bud.

Outcome: The female dog is more loyal, and the male is more hardy and bold.

Choosing a dog of a certain gender in advance is not always successful, as there are even cases when a person goes to our kennel for a Yorkshire terrier boy, and as a result, his choice falls on a Pomeranian girl puppy.

Choosing a dog is not an easy task, especially if you are buying a dog for the first time. First of all, the question arises as to which breed is better to purchase. But here everything is more or less defined: the characteristics of the breed, its advantages and disadvantages can be found both from the manuals and directly from the seller. It is more difficult to determine the sex of the animal. After all, a male in itself is no worse than a female, and preference in this case is very subjective.

Usually, when choosing the sex of a dog, they are guided by several factors.

"Female" and "male" representatives of the canine genus differ significantly in their character. In general, their behavior is similar to human: bitches are more calm, obedient, attached to the owner, while males are wayward, straightforward and rebellious. Of course, there are exceptions - and among the dogs there are "masculine ladies" and "feminine males."

When choosing a dog in this case, it is necessary to determine who will be its owner - a man or a woman, an old or a young man.

A man will cope better with a dog, because he usually loves and knows how to command. It is better for a woman to prefer a calm bitch; the same can be said about old people of either sex - they will be calmer with a quiet, friendly female.

It is characteristic that a strong and strong-willed owner will be able to cope with the same male, but will not get along with a bitch, who is prescribed a more delicate upbringing; he will inevitably suppress the female.

Appearance

The appearance of the dog also depends on its gender. Males are more collected, beautiful and correspond to the characteristics of the breed, while the appearance of the female is more “indefinite”. Moreover, physiological processes will not have the most positive effect on the appearance of the bitch: this is estrus, pregnancy, feeding puppies, etc.

Therefore, it is important to determine why you are taking a dog: "for the house" or "for the show." Males create a stronger impression of themselves, they most often take prizes in competitions and exhibitions. And as you know, the appearance of the dog is judged by its owner.

Subtleties of breeding

During estrus (and not only) the bitch is the subject of natural interest of males. Therefore, walking it during this period is fraught with trouble. If the dog is outbred or does not constitute breeding value, then the danger is small, but if it is necessary to take care of the purity of the breed, everything is more difficult. In such cases, it is customary for females to be sterilized.

It has been noticed that this even has a positive effect on her health: a sterilized bitch lives longer than one that has not undergone this procedure. With the male, of course, there are fewer problems, but walking down the street with him or visiting him is also not easy - he strives to impregnate the females he meets. Often, males are also sterilized, as this eliminates health problems.

An overly active male has to be constantly kept either on a leash or under supervision if the owner does not want to castrate.

In his frantic search for a new female, he often encounters other males who can cripple him or greatly spoil his appearance. In this sense, the female is better for the owner, but she must also be hidden from everyone who wants to "tie" her.

Sooner or later, a bitch, if she has not been spayed and kept under lock and key, may bring puppies. If you are afraid of such a prospect, then it is better to prefer a male.

Puppies are additional maintenance costs, the problem of finding “good hands” (especially if the dog is not a valuable breed) and even the temptation to forget about humanity and drown them. Therefore, when buying a female, it is better to thoroughly prepare for a possible replenishment of the family.

So, the choice is made! A dog of this particular breed - the smartest and most intelligent, the most beautiful and obedient - will become a member of your family, will live in your house, jump for Frisbee, enthusiastically catch the ball and amuse all the kids in the area. I wonder which dog will be closer by virtue of character and behavior - a boy or a girl, that is, a male or a female? Thoughts in my head jump, collide, desires are not determined, but the question is actually complex and it cannot be answered unambiguously. What gender the puppy will decide, of course, is up to the owner, and it's not just the external differences in the exterior, in most breeds sexual dimorphism is expressed quite clearly and vividly, males are usually larger than females and always with more masculine "faces". We should talk about the distinctive behavioral features associated with the sex of the animal, its advantages and disadvantages. Let us dwell on the main points, understanding of which will help the future owner decide which dog he will be comfortable living with for at least a dozen years.

Physiology and behavior

Most owners, when choosing a pet for their home and family, do not consider compulsory exhibition activities and do not plan to participate in breeding programs. Therefore, excluding the issue of reproduction, let us dwell on the physiological differences between males and females, and the behavior associated with them.

Girls. When trying to discern the character and temperament of a puppy, one should not forget that bitches are softer, more cunning and generally more obedient, and the estrus period, which lasts about 21–30 days no more than twice a year, will not greatly complicate life, and it is enough not to let the dog down off the leash.

boys. Males, unlike females, are more honest, straightforward, more active in everyday life, they are dominant on the street and more often find out who is in charge in the family, and they are also not averse to finding out relations with neighbor males, with whom they can be on friendly terms.

Breed characteristics and training

boys. Having chosen a cute, glorious, clumsy puppy that looks like a soft toy, be sure to be ready for him to grow up - the baby will grow into a large, bright, but also independent dog with a clear desire to dominate, and also take a higher step in the hierarchy of your family. You will have to deal with this without letting yourself be pushed around, which requires strength - both moral and physical, the strength of your character and endurance. Nevertheless, many dog ​​breeders will prefer the company of a dog for joint trips to the fields, hunting, fishing, just walking or warming up by walking or running in a forest or park. Because any owner appreciates in his dog courage, endurance, tirelessness, the desire to share the joy of mutual communication in any life realities or situations. Such is the striking feature of boys - straightforwardness and devotion.

Girls. Unlike males, females are usually much calmer, more obedient, affectionate, gentle and friendly with the owner. It is believed that the intelligence of bitches is much higher than that of males, they are more intelligent, docile, with a good instinct for self-preservation and a developed emotional perception of the outside world. Females rarely claim key positions in the family, however, leadership is also inherent in them, but at the same time they are thinner, more cunning, adapt well to life circumstances, due to which they are easier to train and communication with them is much richer due to the more complex, multifaceted and less direct than in males, character.

There is a popular belief about the so-called "cross-selection" of a puppy - a male owner should choose a female, and a female owner should choose a dog.

Price

A little about such a delicate issue as the cost of a puppy. Do not be surprised, but females are somewhat more expensive due to their breeding value, and in some breeds, the price of a male can be an order of magnitude lower than the cost of a female.

Purpose of purchase: for breeding or "soul"

boys. If you decide to become the owner of a stud dog, then you need to remember that only 5% of dogs with a pedigree and a quality exterior are used in breeding. In addition to an excellent exterior and a considerable number of exhibition titles, high-quality rearing with specialized feed, appropriate physical activity and sports training, a stud dog must have good health and mentality, the absence of marriage not only in his own, but also in the closest related offspring, etc.

Girls. The requirements for choosing a stud bitch are not as strict as for males, it is possible to purchase a puppy with minor deviations from the standard, these may be minor flaws and always without defects. But, again, it should be remembered that if the purchase of a female is planned to create a kennel, then when choosing, in addition to the pedigree, it is necessary to take into account both the exterior, and high-quality rearing, and care, as well as the requirements for health and psyche should be as high as and the stud dog.

If you look at the question of choosing the sex of a puppy a little wider, then it will still be important not the sex of the dog, but its character and temperament, and their closeness to the character and temperament of the owner himself. Therefore, you should pay attention first of all to compliance with breed characteristics, and the puppy will be a boy or a girl, it doesn’t matter at all, because once you like it, then yours is from the tip of the nose to the tip of the wagging tail. Look carefully at the puppies you like - maybe you will see an impudent bully girl that you like more, or vice versa, a kind, sociable boy will sink into your soul. So choose a character that is close to yours, without limiting yourself to certain settings for a dog or a bitch.

To the question “is the puppy a boy or a girl? who is better to choose? I have to answer everyone who decided to get a dog, including a decorative one. Of course, for miniature dogs, the difference between females and males is not as noticeable as in the case of, for example, large fighting dogs, where a male can really be dangerous, but it still exists.

What points should you pay attention to when choosing a puppy for a boy or a girl?

1. Of course, the most obvious difference between cables and bitches is the difference in sexual behavior and breeding.

Girls go into heat and this can be a noticeable problem. Usually bitch owners try to breed their pet, but for miniature breeds this form of behavior is not always shown. The fact is that childbirth in small dogs is often very difficult and can end in tragedy. For some breeds, for example, for, the sexual life of females is contraindicated in principle.

Have males with this easier. No estrus, no need to breed an animal. That is, of course, it is possible to knit, but it is not worth it, because a once untied male needs regular mating.

However, males have their own sexual problems. They are very fond of, as the veterinarians say, “landing”, on soft toys, on the legs of the owners and on everything else that you can “sit down”. By masturbating in this way, males achieve a full erection, which is not always worth showing to children. I must say that with their small size, males of decorative dogs can boast of genitals of excellent size.

It is clear that such dogs are not very suitable for families with small children.

As for breeding decorative dogs and possible earnings on this, for breeding purposes, beginners should purchase bitches of breeds that give birth quite easily, for example, standard Yorkies.

Finding a bride for a male can be very problematic, since only very eminent specimens are successful with breeders. That is why it is extremely difficult to make money on breeding an ordinary thoroughbred cable.

Bitches have it easier. Any thoroughbred girl with RFK documents can easily find a partner with similar documents for a not very large fee, and her owners have every chance to sell puppies. That's just, as mentioned above, not all bitches of small breeds can give birth. For some, this is contraindicated in principle, for others it is allowed, but complications are possible.

2. The second point of difference between puppies boys and girls is their playfulness. Males are more active, more like to attack and bite. That's just in view of the miniature size, all these attacks and bite attempts are completely harmless, but the owners are very amused. So, we can directly say that the boys are more cheerful, cheerful and restless. And therefore, if you plan to walk a lot and actively play with the dog, you better choose a male, if you are going to carry the dog with you to the shops, then take the girl.

Of course, a lot depends on the breed. So a bitch needs active play and walks more than a mini-York male.

3. Another difference between males and females is the price of puppies. Bitches are always more expensive and often much more expensive. This is due to the fact that, as already mentioned, they can be bred and make money on it. So, overpaying for a girl, you need to understand what you are overpaying for. Do you need a breeding dog? Then yes, that makes sense. If the dog is for the soul, then it is quite possible to buy a boy from the same litter, but cheaper.
