[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Beagles.
Love ours dearly, but they are impossibly scent driven hounds who will do anything for food.  Huge vet bills for all the junk ours has eaten/gotten into over the years. And they bark/bay like crazy.  And they shed - ours is a tricolor, so whatever color you're wearing shows the hair (white, black and brown).

On the plus side, they're sweet/good with kids (except for the stealing food thing) and so cute.
Will never go hound again.  Spent a small fortune on training, but could never overcome the food thing. [/quote]

The food thing...so true. My beagle/golden mutt has eaten an SOS pad, a whole box of heartworm pills, a box of chocolate. We keep our kitchen gated to keep him out of the trash. He has an iron stomach and never had gotten sick. On the plus side, he does not bark at all except when I get the leash out for a walk.

We also have a Husky mix. Still rather young but one smart dog.

I appreciate that a lot of people are pointing out that it is hard to own smart dogs. Many people fall in love with a certain breed but have no intentions of training and properly exercising their dogs. I love German Shepherds but they are too smart for me. Would love to own a Vizsla but could never get it the proper amount of exercise. [/quote]
