They are not energetic dogs, but do need to be walked daily to keep mental and physical stimulation going and they enjoy routines. They can be aloof and strong willed. They make great guard dogs, but are not always suited to children. Early socialisation to children and other pets is advisable. Their lifespan is considered to be 11-12 years.
