That's hilarious! I know it's not a breed but I can't stand fat dogs either! Of course, i do know this is the owners fault but still... a friend of mine used to say if you have a fat dog, you aren't getting enough exercise

The only breed, as a whole, that I dislike are wire-haired fox terriers. And I also don't like doodles either. Never met a smart one or one that isn't neurotic to some degree and obnoxious as all get out...

I don't think I'll ever own anything other than a GSD or a Border Collie. Although I couldn't turn down a stray in need, regardless of breed.

While I might think some smaller dogs are cute, they annoy the crud out of me. Bichons to be precise or little while poodles drive me insane... It's that high pitch they can reach that just makes me cringe.

Same here.

I don't like the short snouted breeds like pugs or bulldogs. I also don't like small dogs in general. I already have two small animals (my cats). I'm very much a big dog person. I don't hate them--small dogs can be cute. I just don't see the appeal at all for a cat owner and would never own one.

I don't really like English Bulldogs, Boxers and Pugs. They are absolutely great dogs but the way they breath due to their pushed in face just seems so laboured and painful. It would be like me trying to breath through one nostril that is half closed my entire life.

Dachshunds are on my list of dogs to never own... or any other dog that is extremely difficult to potty train (like an Elkhound, etc...).

I have no idea if I have posted here yet. But...
I dislike... Most dogs under 20 pounds (exceptions of course), curly coated dogs, smooshy faced dogs (aka bulldog types), and thats basically it.

There are exceptions of course, I love my friend's mixed breed named Taco who is only about 5 pounds. I also think someone's bullmastiff is just adorable c:

I absolutely cannot stand poorly trained dogs of any breed. Probably because of the paper route I had when I was a kid. I don't care for small dogs, but that is a personal preference. But for some reason the majority of bad dogs I've come across are toy breeds.

I'm a dog lover. I'll own pretty much any dog. This is my second German Shepherd mix dog, so I might stick to those pups =)

my first Shepherd's name was Torro, she was mixed with a Collie.

Can someone tell me why or why not they like/dislike Labs or Goldens?

I once had a boxer mix who we loved to death but he was dumb as a box of rocks. I really like the intelligence of the Shepherd. I've heard Labs and Goldens maybe not so smart? Is this true?
