Hi everyone,

I'm soon going to be getting a little Cavalier puppy and the breeder told me that females get on better with men and that males get on better with women. Is there any truth to this?

Thanks in advance!!!

    That's not quite the case – it depends on the dog, not the breed, but rather their personality.

    Thanks everyone!!! I haven't quite made up my mind yet, I’m thinking of getting a girl but I’m still in two minds.

    It’s true, I’ve always been told that females are more cuddly than males, and I found that to be the case with a friend’s dog. My boy isn’t like that at all, but oh well, that’s just how it is.

    I've got both male and female dogs, and they like whoever feeds them and whoever takes them out. It all depends on the owner's reactions, so they go to my husband just as much as they do to me—I don't see any difference at all.

    With some dogs you can really see their preference, the females for the man of the house and the males for the lady of the house. My boys are perhaps closer to me, it’s true, but as I’m the only one who looks after them it doesn’t really count. Even with the cats, mine definitely have a preference for me.

    It really depends on the dog :)

    The male Yorkie at my parents' has always loved me more than anything, but with my female Chihuahua, I've noticed she prefers men lol! Even though she still follows me around and loves me just as much.

    But as soon as her human Dad is there, she absolutely loooves being on his lap.

    That’s not really been proven... I’ve had both and they mostly gravitate towards whoever looks after them the most. A female is a bit more cuddly than a male....
