Best Answer

From my personal experience I would say, "No". They are friendly and usually like almost everyone. I would not use this breed to guard my personal property as they are not barkers or growlers. They are also not meant to be left alone for extended periods. It isn't in their nature to be aggressive if you are looking for that in a dog.

Is the Portuguese Podengo a good breed for inexperienced dog owners to own?

The Portuguese Podengo is happy, cheerful, and good-natured. They are loyal and extremely devoted. This breed is good with older considerate children and friendly toward strangers. Portuguese Podengo's generally get along well with other dogs. Although congenial, they make an excellent watchdog and will alert their family by barking. Due to their primitive nature, this breed is not recommended for first time dog owners.
