Obviously they need plenty of exercise (used to that with current DDog!) and grooming, but aside from those aspects I'd really love to know what they're like to live with in the long term as pets. Is there any real difference behaviour and/or temperament wise between the three size categories?
Also (and apologies for being horribly practical) what impact do the various potential health issues that I've seen listed have on the cost of pet insurance, and what are those health issues like to deal with as an owner? And how much is the initial financial outlay for a well bred but pet quality pup from a good breeder (not a puppy farmer/commercial breeder) likely to be?
Disclaimer: I'm not ready to make enquiries about acquiring a puppy yet, so I didn't think it would be fair to contact the breed society for information
