Question Discrimination against dog breeds... By dogs?

I recently noticed at work that Koda takes better to some breeds than others. For example, if there are two dogs in runs across from each other and both are super calm, but one is a pit bull and the other is a greyhound... She ignores the pit bull and greets the greyhound.

She won't start fights, and she doesn't posture at all. She simply doesn't care for dogs of certain breeds. Ex. Pit bulls, mastiff breeds, huskies, beagles, basset hounds, labs, etc. She ignores them completely. Won't sniff them, play with them, or acknowledge their existance at all.
Whereas other GSDs, greyhounds, akitas, malamutes, dobermans, rottweilers, and others she absolutely adores regardless of their energy level/gender/size/age.
Also- I know it isn't me, because I adore huskies, mastiffs, labs, etc based on their personalities. So even if I love the dog, if it's one of those breeds, she ignores it.

Does anyone else experience this? Or is my dog senile?
