What is your fav breed of dog?

[rebull]

I hate to pick out of my three breeds I own, but I adore Cane Corsoes the most! I also have an AmStaff and a Bullmastiff. :D

Without a doubt, Dobermans. Everything about them fits me so well that I can't imagine ever having another breed of dog.

scotties scotties and more scotties i swear if i had the money i would have scottish terriers swarm in my house. they are the coolest little dogs i have ever met. i have two of them and they are the best. once you have had the scotty experience it is very hard to break the routine. i wouldnt feel right if i didnt have atleast one scotty in the house.

That is the absolute truth. I tried life without a Scottie and it lasted less than a year. Now I've found I can't live with just one of them. But I have to say the same about my Golden Retrievers. I adore both my Goldens and my Scotties I'll never be without either breed.

I love all breeds of dogs. I have taken care of many since I was little and its hard to just chose one. But I do have to say that the most recent dog I have taken care of is my moms chihuahua. Her name is Honey and she isn't like other little dogs. She doesn't shake or yip all the time. I love her very much so I guess if i had to chose it would be chihuahuas and labs.

Papillions have stolen my heart. <3

I love Pharoah Hounds, Great Danes, Dobermans and probably overall, the Pitbulls. I feel Pitbulls need so much love and I want to be the one to give it to them. They've always caught my eye since I was young. Hopefully my boyfriend will let me pick one up without notice one day. :P

Though back at home, I have a cocker spaniel. Cute, playful, fluffy little dogs they are!

Favorite breeds

I would have to say my absoltute favorite breed of dog is the Great Dane. I have owned danes all my life and its just so hard not to love them!! But they are such a contradiction. They're big, but extremely gentle with small kids, they look dignified but can be very clownish. My second favorite would have to be Weimaraners. My husband grew up with Weimaraners and I have never owned one until we adopted Blue from the shelter a few years back and he is one of the best dogs I have ever owned. He is so much like a person that its easy to forget that he is actually a dog. I guess you could say we favor German breeds in our house. :D

My favorite breeds are Golden Retrievers,German Shephards and Maltese.
I like Golden Retrievers because they are gentle dogs,I`ve met so many people with retrievers and all were gentle they never barked at me.

I like German Shephards because they make good guard dogs and they are very loyal.

Maltese are really sweet dogs and very cuddly dogs.

Boxer's are the Bomb!

I have had boxers in my life for 30 years. They are one of the most sweetest and kindest dogs I have ever seen. Even though I do own 2 other breed of dogs, along with my boxer, I love them the same. Boxers are just very carismatic. (hope i spelt that right). lol

There is a stark difference between a therapy dog and a assistance dog legally....

a therapy dog whether certified or not can be allowed or refused axcess totally up to the descression of the establishment. Most therapy dogs have at least a CGC title (form any handler) and preferrably a TDI title (which must be handled only by it's owner during testing to recieve the title/identification status) . A therapy dog generally is specifically used to provide comfort for others.
On the other hand a ASSISTANCE dog (three types-guide,hearing and service dog) can be used to provide a service to any individual legally declared to have a disability of various classifications.
Most establishments BY LAW must allow axcess to a service dog and there legally disabled handler/owner but is not always the case.
We fight this battle everyday training service dogs. I must also comment
that many therapy and service dogs have been poorly trained and handled by there owners/handlers which as a result is motivating legeslation for national certification processes that somehow direct that dogs be trtained only by qualified trainers.



There are no official certifications for a service dog although various training organizations offer up there own rendition.

hope this helps

Too be scientifically biased ;') My favorite breed is the BORDER COLLIE.
It is considered in scientific studies to be at the top of list for most intelligent and versital dog., A BC is well known for performing any task associated with a dog. They are the premere herding and performance dog as there stamina is generally remarkable. They come in all sizes and colors and can be easily taught to learn anything that is placed before them. There desire to experiement,understand, and actually manipulate there enviroment is outstanding. I think I better stop before I get kicked off the stage.....LOL! We train them for stock dog work,agility,obedience,flyball,search and rescue, therapy, and service dogs here at our Ranch and training facility...
There are many other breeds that we own but our favorite is the BC.
