There is always a reason. This is theie communication.

In that case, dogs whose reason for growling and threatening is that you are existing with another dog across the street.

Favorite is German Shepherd.

Least favorites are any dogs that yap rather than bark. Little rat like dogs I don't care for.

Favorite type are herding breeds. Love me the fluff and brains of a border collie or Aussie all day long.

I love small, so Icelandic shepherds are high up the list.

Love nearly all dogs… other than your weird hydroponic “doodle” concoctions.

Used to have an issue with yappy little ones, chihuahuas mainly. But have now known a few to be OK.

But a big ole good boy?!? Lab, rottie, mastiff, huskie, hound, golden, shepherd, pit, bully, boxer… gimme ALL the good boys!!

What do people mean when they just say "terrier"? Pitbulls are American Pitbull Terriers. There are Yorkshire Terriers, Boston Terriers. Rat Terriers. None of these dogs are similar. I get that AKC has a specific Terrier group, I just don't see the connection between these dogs aside from the name.

Thanks.

Don't like: any pit bulls, anything small and squeaky, most doodles

Just curious do you not like dogs that are pure bred like American pit bull terrier or Staffordshire terrier? Or is it all dogs that have some pit ( like 10 percent American pit bull terrier and 50% lab and 40 percent Border collie?

I like neither purebred pit bull terriers nor pit mixes. I've raised working dogs (Malinois, Samoyed, Chinook, Buhund, Kuvasz, etc.), and I've also raised a few rescues. It's been my requirement that my rescues contain no pit lineage.

In re: the PP's question about terriers, I think people who don't like them object to their tenacity, feistiness, and propensity for noise and nipping. I've had family Airedales and Jack Russells, and while I can appreciate them as Good Dogs, I can also say I wouldn't choose them as my own pets.

My brother just adopted a purebred Husky, and while it's not the right dog for an inexperienced owner, that pup is gorgeous and smart and soft and awesome! So I'm adding Husky to my list.

I love my goofy gigantic labradoodle.

Like: Irish wolfhounds, German shepherds and related breeds, Schipperke and old fashioned non-pit bull mutts.

Like the idea of: the real weird working ones I’ll never have - the ones bred to fight off threats to livestock (I just don’t need that much dog!)

Strongly dislike: pit bulls and terriers, there’s something about the last few corgis I met I didn’t like
