Which dog gets on better with which? Sometimes the rule applies, sometimes it doesn’t, let’s be clear, it totally depends on your dog’s personality and way of life in social situations.
However, some breeds have similar and compatible temperaments. It is useful to be aware of this if you are willing to be cautious about stress levels, chaos and drama.
Your dog might feel inclined to socialise and play with specific breeds whilst in the park, often it is more about who is turning up and who isn’t. And adjusting to the situations accordingly. Your reassurance towards the attitude of your dog, for example being gentle and kind towards the other dog/s, helps a lot. Remember to participate in the interaction between him/her and the other dog/s.
