I don't really care for small dogs......

My two faves are Aussies and Pit Bulls. Love them both.

I love bully breeds, Pitbulls, American bulls, Staffordshire bulls, English Bull terriers (NOT the bulldog). However, I think easch dog is an individual and it depends on how they are raised, I have met savage collies and Labradors but really soft Rottweilers and Great danes.

Yea I def. agree with you. The dogs actions depend on how it was raised regardless of breed.

There are a few facebook sites dedicated to helping people understand that but BSL (British legislation) wants to ban all staffy, bullmastiff ect... dogs under the pretense that they are fighting dogs! Half, nay 2/3 of british dogs are staffs/staffy X's. How the hell is that one gonna stick?!

People just need to understand. When you hear of a case involving a pit attack it is the OWNER of that dog you is truly at fault NOT the dog.

Hi all ! I like all kinds of breeds. I have owned pure breds in the past and now am prefering mixed . The mixed have so many different looks, charators, colorings and markings and seem to be healthier and have less health problems. Now adays there is so much in breeding ya never know if you are truely getting a pure bred !

For me it has to be a real terrier with the terrier attitude and instincts. My passion is Jack Russells and I love them all - rough coat, broken. smooth - tri colour, white and tan, white and black - long legs, short legs. There is so much variety yet they are all recognisable as Jack Russells.

If finance, space and time were no object though I would love to have a Sealyham terrier and, perhaps, a rough coated Podengo. But I would not consider my pack complete without a Jak Russell.

Anyone ever see a Puli? Quite the exotic dog, eh?

The dog with dreadlocks- seen photos and seen them on tv but have never seen one in the flesh.

Hi ! I think the dog you may be refering to is called Komondor, name these days know as Hungarian Sheepdog, looks like a mop as well lol . They were used to gaurd sheep and cattle in Hungary, corded coat provided protection from the elements and wolves. Today it is used for its gaurding ability in north America to protect sheep from coyote predation. Just a lil history hehe.

Lilly - the Puli and the Komondor are both Hungarian breeds and look very similar but they are very different in size. The Puli is much smaller.

Puli;

Size, Proportion, Substance

Ideally, males are 17 inches measured from the withers to the ground;bitches, 16 inches. An inch over or under these measurements is acceptable. The tightly knit body approximates a square measured from withers to ground and point of shoulder to point of buttock. Medium boned.

Komondor (much larger than Puli);

Size, Proportion, Substance

Dogs 27½ inches and up at the withers; bitches 25½ inches and up at the withers. Dogs are approximately 100 pounds and up, bitches, approximately 80 pounds and up at maturity, with plenty of bone and substance. While large size is important, type, character, symmetry, movement and ruggedness are of the greatest importance and are on no account to be sacrificed for size alone. The body is slightly longer than the height at the withers. Height below the minimum is a fault.

Can check out the differences in the 2 breeds--Puli and the Komondor by clicking on this link and the one I gave above (post #111 above) on the Puli. I think I prefer the Komondor.

Please read the notice issued by admin. There was a change in server that has caused problems and will most likely be resolved by 4/10.
It is not your personal computer but a site related issue at this time.

I am partial to be dogs. My favorite breed is the leonberger. Wonderful giants that are great water dogs and one of the few breeds that have been bred to only be a companion dog. Most breeds have been a working dog at some point.
