Back in the 1970s, Benno Ritter had a vision of the perfect working dog. Despite being called crazy he persevered until his goals were achieved and Küstenhunde [affectionately called 'Küsts'] are to the standard they are today. Much like their creator, these dogs have courage and perseverance in spades. They make amazing working dogs, as the breed was intended, but are also suitable as pets in the right homes.
These dogs need good leadership and lots of engagement to reach their full potential but when they do they are an absolute powerhouse. Küstenhunde bond closely with their owners and are loyal to a fault. Even untrained animals show classic protection behaviors and take to the proper training like they were meant for it. These amazing animals can take on just about any job you can throw at them, from therapy work to search and rescue and everything between. Küstenhunde are the swiss army knife of dogs when it comes to what they can accomplish.
