Cats are filthy. They walk in their litter boxes, then walk on your kitchen table and countertops, where food is prepared.... disgusting.. Dogs don't do that. One cat will stink up the house worse than 10 dogs, no matter how often you clean the litter box. If they go outside, they crap in the flower beds and kids' sandboxes.Worst of all, they stalk my poultry and have to be trapped or shot. I absolutely hate cats. Dogs Rule!

Pits and labs. Both super loving dogs.

English Mastiff

I have a 3 month old puppy and he weighs 36lbs.
They are as lazy as can be and that makes them great cuddle bugs.

This morning it's the "stuffed" ones. My puppy is making me crazy!

Mutts! I love the genetic misadventures that mother nature has sent my way. I just said good bye to a wonderful Red Heeler Bijon Frieze (looked like a gigantic Chinua), and my daughter recently gifted me with a "Bug" Boston Terrier Pug mix who is currently wrapped around my feet as I am typing this. A friend asked me how I could have another dog so soon after Nellie's passing and I replied I could not imagine my life without a dog in it. They enhance my life more than I enhance theirs I am sure.

I can't remember his name - but there is a famous UK vet who has a bunch of books about his vet stories - anyways, he always said the best way to get over the passing of a dog is to get a new dog right away.

It makes sense to me. I don't think it is disrespectful to the passed dog at all and the energy, effort, emotion and thought that goes into a new dog would be a great distraction.

I have a HUGE soft spot for Collies. My first dog when I was a kid was a Bearded-Collie and the neighbor kids called him Lassie Dog. After getting married I knew I wanted a dog to be part of our life together, even though my husband never had one growing up. We got Bailey a year and a half ago. She's a Border Collie mix and she's soooo freaking smart and lovable.

The cat breed. Dogs are awful. Ok not ALL dogs, but most. If I HAD to tolerate a breed, it would be something not smelly, ugly, drooly, doesn't shed, doesn't eat/crap a ton, and doesn't bark all the time or have an annoying yappy voice. What breed would that be? :laugh:

A Basenji.

Short hair, hypoallergenic, 25-35 lbs, but strong, loyal and does not bark.

Love that dog!

I owned two Basenji's, mother and daughter. From a championship line too.

They are all of the above; however, they are, without a doubt, the smartest and most stubborn dog breed ever. They are truly the cat of the dog world. And lastly, the closest to being wild of any breed. If you get more than one, they will pack attack other animals and small children. I'll never forget the day my two 20-30lb dogs got off leashes and cornered a Pit mix. There is a reason they are used to hunt Lions in Africa.

My father had three, but only one at a time. Fascinating dogs, and yes, very intelligent. Had no idea about the 'pack attack' issue, although in retrospect that doesn't surprise me given their use in Africa. I would love to have one in the future, but right now is not really a good time.

Most breeds that hunt (not retrieve) will do the pack thing. Terriers do it all the time. Just ask the bunnies who hang out in our yard.

3 faves, Presa Canaria, Shiba Inu, Rhodesian Ridgeback. Never owned a Shiba Inu, but owned the other two - they were so sweet.
Sorry no pictures they are just too difficult to post as I don't use a photo sharing program. Google Images if you want to know more.

Edited because I can't spell Shiba, lol

Might want to take another crack at Presa Canario

Thought I'd change the gender,lol HER name was "Suede" :blushing: Thanks - not too bright last night.

Boxer. I have one, and hes a silent lizard eating speed demon ninja.

I definitely love them all! Animals are so wonderful and dogs are just so special to have as friends.

But I certainly have a soft spot for the sweet little guys!

Maltese, Havanese, Yorkies, Shih Tzus, Shiba Inus, Pomeranians...

I love how when they jump on you, their paws are so soft and gentle. It's difficult to deal with a big dog jumping on you because they don't realize how big they are and those big excited paws can hurt! lol Gotta love 'em though. :P

Oh and I love listening to Huskies and Malamutes howl. It's just the cutest thing. ^_^

SemperAnticus1643

This adorable thing!! He's a boxer/pit bull mix and the most lovable thing ever. He's so amazing with my girls and very protective of me and our home.

Hot dogs ... as on the grill. Or the ones at the track that you bet on.

German Shepherd!

Best dogs ever!!!

ditzyFlip

Corgi is my favorite, but pit bulls come at a very close second!

borst13

Aww I have so many favorites! I actually recently adopted a German Shepard/ Shetland Shepard mix and I am in love with her! GSD has always been my dream dog since my family owned one when I was younger and was my best friend. I didn't know much about her Sheltie side until I started researching out of curiosity and I am really liking that breed too! My other tops are Huskies, Akitas, Pugs and Shiba Inus.

Is that dog meat in your ticker!?

Cocker Spaniels for sure!! I lost my blondie boy about 2 yrs ago to Cancer. He was almost 11yrs old. Now I have 2 black ones..a boy and a girl. They have all been rescues

My parents cocker will be 16 years old in August and she's still going strong!

My family's first dog we rescued when I was 5 was a black Cocker Spaniel. Although I don't necessarily want one, I will always have a soft spot for the breed.

Oh yes, as I previously mentioned in another post, I have 3 JRT's (2 purebred, 1 JRT/Doxie) and they go nuts when the cottontails and jack rabbits are in the yard, or the ground squirrels are in the yard.

I recently started doing agility with my female (she is almost 2) and she has taken to it like a fish to water! Within the first hour, she was able to go through the first run of obstacles and back off leash. Smart, and she really loved the stimulation.
