Temperamento
The Saarloos Wolfhond is known for its gentle and affectionate demeanor, making it a great companion for families who understand its needs. This breed is intelligent and curious, often requiring mental stimulation to keep it engaged.

Consideraciones de Salud
The Saarloos Wolfhond is generally a healthy breed but may be prone to certain genetic conditions due to its lineage. Hip dysplasia is a common concern in medium-sized breeds, and routine screenings are recommended to monitor joint health. Progressive retinal atrophy (PRA) can also occur, so regular eye examinations are advised. This breed typically has a lifespan of 10-12 years, with proper care and attention to preventive measures such as a balanced diet, regular exercise, and routine veterinary check-ups. It is important to maintain a consistent vaccination schedule, administer parasite prevention, and monitor for any signs of discomfort or illness. Early socialization and training also contribute to their overall well-being.
