Dog Survey...Based on appearance alone, would you have any of these dogs.....

[iluvterriers]

Based on appearance alone, would you have any of these dogs as the family pet...why/why not?

Just for fun I'm doing a little poll or survey type question about how the appearance of certain dogs makes them either more adoptable or less adoptable.

Also please answer the poll and leave you imput here

Okay so I have 6 dogs here, based on nothing but general appearance (because all 6 have wonderful temperments)
Would you consider any of these 4 dogs as a family pet around your kids? (Or if you don't have kids)

Why or Why not?

Please Comment on EAch dog


(to make it better I'll give each one an Alias name, for the privacy of the owners)

Dog 1: Cinnemon





Dog 2: Ziva





Dog 3: Mischa


Dog 4: Hunter



Dog 5: Trouble




Dog 6: Layla

Dog #5 Trouble for me. I've got small dog fever and my next will be a lap dog, so based on looks alone I'd pick Trouble. He/she is insanely adorable. They're all cute. The dog #1 was close second based on looks alone.

[Karen]

Voted for #1, just because I am a sucker for black dogs with goofy tan dot "eyebrows" - my first dog ever had those!

[luvofallhorses]

I would take Ziva. She just looks like my kinda dog.

[Grace]

#1 - her eyes got me.

[pomtzu]

I'm a little dog lover, so I would have to go with #5 - Trouble. From her pic, she looks like a big ball of energy all wrapped up in a small package.

Second would be #6 - Layla. A snugly lap dog for sure.

Third would be #3 - Mischa. Looks so bright and alert and inquisitive.

#1 or #4, they look smart, relaxed, and out of the puppy stage and with the hands on #4 like that he's obviously ok with it.

#2 looks like a lab mix, isn't this your dog? I don't do labs personally. Just my preference.

#3 would be potentially an issue at the dog park. Her tail is up, ears up, eyes staring down something like she's going to pounce. This is a dominant and confidant dog who could start trouble, especially in a pack to back her up. When I see dogs walk into the dog park like this, I walk away with my dogs.

#5 is too much puppy and too much teeth. This looks like a dog who's going to jump on people and not bite, but skim them with her teeth in excitement. Trouble perhaps.

#6 looks like a fear biter to me.

Yes number 2 is my dog.....just doing a survey here and thought she was a good canidate to throw in. (don't let that affect you answers...her name isn't Ziva by the way just an alias.....She is not a lab mix though that we know of, she is a small dog. Actually 2 of the dogs up there are mine and I know 2 of the others)

[Husky_mom]

definately..

Cinnamon, Mischa and Hunter...based on looks..

Cinnamon has this big dog goofy look I love..just a giant teddy bear
Mischa has a mischevious husky-ish look..and fluffy ..
and Hunter has a hunky cheeky face and a pretty brindle coat

[lvpets2002]

Oh I picked #6 Layla.. She is such a Sweet Cute Baby.. Of course I really like Beagles..

[cali]

I would consider #'s 2, 3 and 6. LOVE #3, she would be my number 1 choice by appearence alone, she looks BCish and BCs are my faverite breed..I am just automaticly attracted to dogs that have a BCish appearence lol, #2 is my second choice..just something about her! #6 is not my fave simpley because I am not a big beagle fan, but I would not discount her. I dont care for #1 or #4 simpley because I very much prefere streamlined and rounded, and I find those 2 much too thick and square for my personal preferace. # 5 simpley reminds me of the goldendoodles at work, and I HATE those dogs, they are so unbelievably annoying lol

[MonicanHonda]

I like 2,3, and 4.

I like 2 because she just looks different. She looks happy go lucky and she looks like she would be well behaved with dogs and children.

# 3 is gorgeous. She looks alert and ready to play to me. She looks genuinely happy and like she would enjoy many hikes through the woods. My kinda dog!

I like 4 because she has gorgeous eyes and awesome ears. Lol She looks strong, but stable. I think she would honestly be a big cuddler.

[Indigo Bully Connection]

Love that Pit Bull in number four, but I don't think I'm going to be taking on any more of those any time soon... maybe number one I'm a softy for an old fart!

[Taz_Zoee]

I had to vote for Mischa. She looks like a GSD/Aussie mix. And I'm rather smitten with both of those breeds.

But honestly, since adopting Taggart, I would want to meet the dog and see what they are like. I know you said all of them have good temperments. But I'd like to see their personality. I saw a dog at the shelter this weekend that had the same personality as Taggart. I loved him!! He plopped in my lap while I was sizing his harness and stuck his head through it making it difficult for me to adjust it.

I chose Trouble- no.5 because it looks like a dog that could keep you happy and laughing.
Then I would take no. 6-Layla because she looks cuddly but sad.
No 4 Hunter also because it also looks lonely and ziva and the rest if I had room for them .
