Do You Live With A Wood Dog?
Wood Dogs are generally lithe, muscular and
very energetic. Some of the working breeds such as the sight hounds are typical of a Wood
Dog and provided they have plenty of exercise and the right environment make excellent
companions for the experienced, active dog owner. The independent nature, and high sense
of adventure that accompanies this type may cause problems for the Wood Dog owner in some
instances since the drive to be constantly busy may encourage the dog to escape the
confines of a back yard and roam uninterrupted at every conceivable opportunity. A high
fence or wall will merely be tackled with the zest and gusto that the Wood Dog applies to
every other obstacle that crosses his/her path. And they rarely give up. For dogs with an
affinity with the Wood Phase will generally keep on going until they drop.
With anger as the emotion associated with this
Phase, dogs with Wood disharmony may have a tendency towards moody, and aggressive
behaviour. The bark will often be full and deep and will generally be accompanied by
jumping and lunging. They may even have a tendency to bite and will often be extremely
intolerant of other dogs around them. Allergies and recurring eye and ear problems are
further indications of Wood disharmony.
