What breeds do you dislike?

[Mavrick6512]

I dislike like Greyhounds or any that look like them. I dislike small dogs, except Pugs. I dislike beagles. I dislike dogs that catch food in their facial hair. (gross) =)
I dislike like any poodle-ish type dog.
I dislike any dog that's fur is shaven in some spots and not others (like poodles)
I dislike dogs that grow hair some places and some not. (eekk) haha

I think thats about it.

[Bluecatdemoness]

I dislike small breeds.

I don't like Japenese Chins (my sister has three of them), not only do their eyes pop out if too much pressure is placed on them, they are annoying as heck! Her male is "overweight" at 8 lbs PLEASE! Because of that Max is not allowed to play with them because he is already 30 lbs and just one paw on any of them would cause an eye to shoot out

Not a fan of terriers, poodles or pocket book dogs...I prefer dogs the size of a lab or bigger.

I agree with the poster who said the overbred dogs. I feel sorry for them that people continue to breed dog for certain traits even though doing so has made them bascially very fragile animals like the Chins. Gotta feel sorry for them

Clearly, you haven't met Jester

I don't so much dislike a specific breed as I dislike misbehaving dogs in general. Not that that's really the dogs fault. Today when I took Jester out some dog came and jumped all over Jester. His owner stood there and called him back. When he FINALLY went back she still didn't do anything to restrain him and he was back annoying us within a minute.

The only dog breed a have had nothing but bad experiences with is the beagle. I worked in kennel, nothing was worst than listening to beagles howl all day and being pulled around by one (they're strong!) Nothing gave me a headache faster. Plus, they always seem to come in pairs.....

But I've heard they are very sweet dogs and I have no doubt if people actually take the time to train them they can be perfectly delightful.

I tend to favor bigger breeds, but I also end up falling in love with friends' pugs, beagles and pomeranians. That said, I don't like the little spoiled white fluffy dogs or the little spoiled curly haired dogs. I haven't met one of either that I've ever liked. I guess my dislike for certain dogs has nothing to do with the breed or size. More to do with their temperment, how spoiled they are, how friendly they are and how obedient they are.

Having an 85 lb shepherd that is a hyper adolenscent, I'm sure there have been people who didn't like my dog. Oh well!

Droolers and Smooshed Faces

[MacknCody]

Dogs with weird hair that have to be shaved or put bows in.

Dogs that drool or have smooshed faces.

Any kind of poodle or yappy dogs.

Any dogs that have an excess of skin like the basset hound.

I do have to say through, I had a doxy that grew up with me and was very laid back and sweet and went to ease my grandparents as they were both seriously ill.

And my Jojo is a beagle mix and he is one awesome dog. Sweet, cuddly, loyal, and protective.

Intensely brachycephalic breeds (I think a pug x min pin cross is an improvement), poorly bred toys (any toy dog that doesn't truly have the heart, nerve, and confidence of a well bred large dog and raised as such), beagles (would love them if I could hunt rabbit in the country, but I wouldn't want one for a pet), well generally I am not a scenthound fan, and for the breeds I love I tend to like the working/field lines and strongly dislike the showline/bench bred versions. I also haven't met many good cockers. The only good one I've met that I can think of off the top of my head was an English cocker. I know there are good American cockers out there (Tazer!) but I'm not seeing many of them.

[Maryn]

I can't stand cocker spaniels. I have spent alot of time with big dogs and haven't ever been bitten by one. I've been bitten by THREE cockers!
There was a small white fluffy canine type animal that projected itself off of a porch and attached to my ankle as I was walking past...I'd probably dislike that kind as well. But it was a white blur of teeth and fur, no clue what 'breed'.
Don't like poodles, and I'm not a big terrier fan. I admire their tenacity and drive, but I wouldn't own one. Same for Dachsunds.
Don't like dalmations either.

I'm sorry you were hurt, but your description is priceless!
