    I probably should say Chihuahua, since I have two of them lol. But personally ive always wanted a Golden Retriever.

    Chopper is the best dog (boxer) around!

    He is super friendly (maybe too friendly), loves to play, go for walks/car rides and is the best cuddler ever!
    Oh, and he ONLY barks when playing! 6v8qnnnlqpcb.jpg
    Sweet!

    Shelties are hands down the best behaved dogs I've ever had the pleasure of owning. They're smart, gorgeous and loving companions. I currently own a Chihuahua-Rat Terrier mix, and she's the sweetest little lap dog I've ever seen. Not nearly as smart as my Sheltie, and you can't beat the Sheltie coat, but sweet and loves her humans with every excited little heart beat. When I live in a bigger home with the space and area to go on walks, I'll absolutely look for a Sheltie again.

    I also have a soft spot for Irish Wolfhounds, but I'd need to live on farm for a Wolfhound to be able to live happily. :D

    That being said, cats are still the best. :3

    I love big dogs. Any big dog.

    But I somehow fell in love with a 50 pounder.
    Best estimate of Border Collie and Newfoundland mix. Skip!

    Pits!! Boxers!! I really would love to have a Westie someday also, they're so sweet and loveable. Currently I have a Lab/Dane mix and a Boxer/Pit mix. My furbabies!

    Newfoundlands and Irish Wolfhounds! My Newfie Max lived for 14 yrs and was very protective! Conan is our current Irish Wolfhound, he is 6 and still a big baby! He stands 7 ft tall when on his hind legs!

    You do not have to have a farm for a wolfhound jadezia! A good size yard will do! They are relatively lazy! We have a travel trailer that is only 24 ft long, a tow behind. I love camping with him because people are just in awe when they see him get out of the car and the camper! They just need lots of love not lots of room! ; )

    dogs > cats > people

    Specific breed(s)? Whatever I currently own, so in this case, Jack Russells.

    I own a dog home boarding business so see lots of lovely dogs, these three though are my favourites as they are mine. The blue whippet is Smudge, the brindle lurcher is Maisey and the little jack russell is Bryn

    I love me some mixes!
    So far, I tend to stick within the German Shepherd/Lab/Husky mixes but I love all dogs (except for Chihuaua's - they scare me a bit!)
    Currently, I have a 7 year old Husky/Shepherd mix named Lucy we rescued and a 1 year old Chocolate Lab/Hound mix named Kota we adopted...
    Sweetest darn dogs I've ever met in my life! :-D Big old furry love muffins who just LOVE cuddling and walks!

    Gah, that sounds amazing! I love to travel with my dogs, I can imagine camping with a wolfhound would be blast. Maybe once I get a bigger house, I could look into one, then. They're so gorgeous, and the one's I've met have always been gentle giants. /swoon

    I love Rotties! I had to 2 before I moved and they were great dogs.

    I fell in love with the breed South African Boerbole when I was watching the Patti LaBelle episode of Dog Whisperer. I really want one.

    My wife wants an English Bulldog. I think I would enjoy this breed too because I heard they were like men in dogs' flesh!

    All three of these are my favs....

    I love many different breeds, but for me and what I want a dog for, one stands above the rest, Labrador Retrievers

    Excellent family dogs
    Excellent hunting dogs
    Obedient and eager to please

    If only they didn't shed so much!
