I'm not fond of the toy breeds at all (especially dachshunds) and I would never, ever own one.

I don't do small breeds. The whole thing about them being permanantly small (like a puppy) is appealing to me, but obviously they have mature personalities eventually - I kinda relate it to a know-it-all kid. Plus, they're kinda yappy
![]() Also, not a fan of pits. They just look mean (funny saying that as a GSD owner, right? )

I don't really like small breeds either. I like big dogs

I like other dogs, but I'm stupid for a GSD. LOVE them. Don't care for angulation though, sorry!
DUMB DOGS. I don't care what it is, I'll have nothing to do with dogs with inferior intellect. There goes labs. Ugly dogs (Sorry, I'm shallow about my pets!) like Pugs, anything else with a smashed in face, yappy rat things (I think ya'll call them ankle biters) like Chihuahuas, ill-behaved anything, Pit Bulls usually aren't very pretty either though some are pretty cool, LAZY dogs with no energy, so that rules out all lap dogs. From what I know of Cocker Spaniels, they are very jealous and I don't like that in a dog. No Bassett Hounds for me; they look suicidal. Dachsunds or anything else that shakes just because something is different (OMG, this pillow is not in its usual place!). Anything that won't use the bathroom outside- again with the Dacschsund. My parents have one and they feel sorry for her when she has to pee in the cold because she shivers and doesn't like the feel of the cold ground. Stuck up or sissy dogs are out as well as pampered dogs and dogs in purses. Designer breeds because such a thing should not exist: one doesn't DESIGN a dog, one selectively breeds desirable traits to a purpose. I don't care for corgies due to their long back and stubby legs, at least GSDs aren't disproportionate and funny looking! Hounds will be considered on a case by case basis. White Borzois can be pretty, some salukis are pretty, red bones are pretty but Bloodhounds not so much. Dogs on the "Awesome List:" Anything that looks like a wolf (GSDs, Huskies, Malamutes, totally want a Czeck wolfdog), large, sweet mutts (met a border collie/St. Bernard...so cool), quard dogs like Dobermans and Rottweilers, etc, INTELLIGENT dogs! I like dogs that are big and have a nice, hardy look to them. Some breeds look like existing causes them pain or they'd die or faint or something at the slightest change in the weather.

Ankle biters (with exceptions who are polite and properly trained), dogs who feel the need to bark constantly. Any dog in the Spitz family as i dont need or want to be around a dog that not only has a photogenic memory but i also dont want or need to be around a dog that OPENLY disrespects his owners. Plus all that THICK fur is out. no thanks. i dont want something i can make a coat out of. HATE hounds. big and small ones. I like pits. they're intelligent dogs. OH! and if i cant groom it myself at home, no thanks.

oh! yeah i'm not a big fan of dogs who's tail naturally is constantly curled over their back. They look prissy and i dont do prissy. In fact i usually smack prissy. Species doesnt matter. AND i cant stand little dogs for another reason! people feel the need to dress them in a different outfit every day! WTH is that about?! I'll occassionally put a Tshirt on my dogs for one reason or another but dude! Come on! they have fur!!!!! |

I love All dogs but I once read something about a scheperke and in the breeds history bio it said something about them pooping in water when they were on boats and since then they have always turned me right off
