I have a Chi cross and he never barks, is totally house trained and kid safe. He is also reliable not to go in the horse fields. Best dog I have ever had.

I wouldn’t have a pit bull, an expensive doodle(mutt), or a pug (can’t stand the breathing noise). I also don’t love big dogs and hate Labs!!!!! They chew, are too active, and are ugly. I like a medium sized, cozy, lazy dog.

Is it a Chi-poo?

I like all sorts of dogs—small, big, cute, ugly—but I am wary of Basset Hounds. I used to deliver pizza, and it’s the only breed that was ever snappy with me. I’m actually much more comfortable around Pit Bulls than BHs. Runner-up German Shepherds. I can’t read their body language.

I've had bad experiences with Basset Hounds and Basset Hound mixes above all other breeds too. I don't get it, but they are awful.

It's fine not to like them, but the getting fat part is entirely their owners fault.

I've encountered a lot of dogs and the one breed that has bitten me (more than once!) was a Maltese. Someone who said they are ill-groomed is also right, they usually look like a wreck and stink.

And I don't mean ill-groomed by their owners...I mean the breed lends itself to being that way.

Pugs are awesome!

The only dogs should be ones that have evolved, with man's help, for working purposes, and who are therefore reasonably healthy and hardy. They should continue to be worked so the breed doesn't lose those traits.

Like which dogs? Labs for service dogs, german shepherds as police dogs, and farm dogs like australian shepherds and collies? Is that what you mean? Are boxers used for any purpose other than breeding? Just curious.

Pit bull, Doberman, German Shepard, Rottweiler, etc. English bulldog, and any dog that is not easy to train.

Would love a border collie but don't have the space/energy. I have a mini schnauzer who barks like a lunatic but is otherwise well behaved, intelligent and the most loving dog ever. Many people find her yappy and would never want her but she's the best.

I think it means anything that stimulates the traits they're bred for...we have herding dogs and they like doing herding contests and agility courses.

I love my GSDs.

I'm a dog lover and shouldn't laugh at your comment...but I did.

My shih tzu is the prettiest little girl in the world!

Any small yappy breed
Dogs with nasty, hairy faces that get crap in them like Schnauzers or Maltese or anything else
Strong dogs with vicious tendencies like Pits, Canine Corsos or Presa Canarios (the type that killed Diane Whipple in SanFran)
