Behaviour and Personality
French Pins are suitable for only experience owners as they have an independent, out-going streak. They enjoy human companionship and are very spirited, but must be trained from early on to weed out stubborn behaviors. If properly trained, they can be family pets, although they should not be left with children. The best means of training is through consistent, positive reinforcement. Their high energy levels require daily exercise routines as well as a fenced backyard to play in.
