Male dogs often fall into the category of being considered less loyal, or less emotionally attached, because they favor exploration more and would regularly roam around in search of a mate. A dog that favors roaming around more than sticking by his owner’s side may be considered by some as less loyal, or less emotionally attached. Male dogs are likely to view aggression as a social order factor. Male dogs are often cited to bite more frequently than female dogs. This might however, be more as a result of their roaming tendencies, than actual aggression. When provoked, or mistreated, any dog will bite - be they male or female. Your dog's likelihood to be friendly is more closely linked with dog breed than with a dog’s gender. Some dog owners have a natural preference for one gender of dogs to another, for no tangible reason. If you have tend to prefer one gender of dogs or connect to one gender or the other, follow your instinct. Choose a dog that you connect with and make the choice to raise your dog to be loving, sweet, assertive and emotionally connected to you.
