Italian Doxies are lovely and devoted companions. These energetic dogs are quite fond of living in condominiums and apartments. They are jovial and kind to children as well as other dogs. They may become naughty and obstinate at times.

Keep the pedagogy exciting and enjoyable so that they do not feel compelled.
