Best Looking Breed?

[Foam]

Which breed of dog do you think is the best looking?
Colorwise?
FurWise?
Body ShapeWise?
Overall?

Colorwise-Sable German Shepherd
FurWise-Labrador Retriever (I'm fond of short hair breeds)
BodyWise-Akita
Overall-Overall, I think that the Akita has the most handsome apperance. It comes in all diffrent colours, and I love the muscular body types. Their head is blocky, yet very good looking. I'm a big fan of tails, and it's bushy tail that just curls up over it's rump is good.
If you couldn't tell, Akitas are my favorite breed. All though the breed you think is best looking doesn't mean it has to be your favorite.
Akitas are overall sweet dogs, with good apperances, and that's something I look for when choosing a dog. :)

[zippy-kat]

colorwise - border collies
furwise - cocker spaniels
body - the setters...english, gordon, irish
overall - I'd LOVE to have a coonhound, treein' walker, or gordon setter...such lovely pups! However, had I the time/money/space to adopt one right now, it'd probably be a cocker.

[GoldenRetrLuver]

color wise- harle great danes
furwise- Great Pyerenes (sp?)
body- golden retrievers, i think they are a gorgeous breed and very well built!
overall- collie, i love their temperment, and apperence. They are also, a gorgeous breed, you dont see too often. I love their coat, (esspecially the sable and whites!):D :)

Body ShapeWise: Alaskan malamutes have the nicest build. I love it, they look so strong and witty, and they are ;). I love the breed. Malamutes are very big dogs and all muscle.

Overall: Siberian huskies, I have always been fond of the breed and will always be. They have the nicest soft ears and they are a great family dog *at least mine is*, I love the way they are so vocal and they talk to you lol. It is too funny. My all time favoret thing about my sib is her stunning ble eyes, they are so beautiful. . I will always love Siberians They are my all time fav.

Furwise: Old English sheepdogs

Wires are silly and full of energy;but when trained and loved they give endless pleasure and amusement and they're a good size for travelling.

[wolf_Q]

lol bnormal.......same for me, except it's the SIBERIAN HUSKY!!

They are just the perfect dog for me.

Colorwise-Siberian huskies....they come in a large variety of colors and markings
FurWise-Siberian huskies...a gorgeous pelt of fur....but not long enough to look "shaggy" ...just thick, and it really doesn't mat
BodyWise-Siberian huskies.....the perfect size, medium...big enough to look like a large dog, but small enough to handle
Overall-Siberian huskies! I LOVE breeds that are somewhat "wolf-like" in appearance. I prefer the siberian husky because they are not as stocky as malamutes and akitas. They look more athletic I think. Also I love their masks and the eyes (any color!) are amazing.

This is just my opinion! :D There's many dog breeds I also love to look at, but that'd take too long! lol

[wolfsoul]

Good thread!

colour wise: Catahoula leopard dog! I love the colour of the fur, but mostly the eyes!
http://www.sec.state.la.us/around/facts/i-watts.jpg

Fur wise: German shepherd dog! Love the need for grooming, i'm obsessed with brushing, and I love the silkiness.
http://www.animalfirm.com/sasha.jpg

Body shape wise: siberian husky. I love the way their tails go down all the way and then curl upright. I also love the shape of their paws and I love their legs.
http://www.dogbiz.com/dogs-grp3/siberian/images/siberian-280x270-tig.gif

Overall - Catahoula leopard dog!! They are my most favourite breed! The appearance is gorgeous, and their temperments are great! I love guard dogs. I also love their small pupils that make them look almost wolfish.

[anna_66]

bnormal, I'd have to say the same except Rottie:D

colorwise-rottie: I love the shiny, slick black fur with just the proper amount of mahogony or tan in just the right spots.

Fur wise-rottie: short, easy to manage hair.

Body shape wise-rottie: loads of lean mean musle:D

Overall-rottie: they have a wonderful temperment & can adapt to just about any lifestyle. They can be big lap dogs or guard dogs.
I guess they just suit our life perfect:D
How could you not just love this perfect looking specimen:p
http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid48/p49956497235c6de6618018595aee3000/fcbf973d.jpg

Don't get me wrong I love my husky & chow, but the rottie is definately my most favorite breed!

I guess I'd have to say

Doberman Pinscher

:D :D :D

Thats just what I was goin to do~!! LOL:D

[bnormal]

GSDgurl, it is so cool that you have now joined the Dobie ranks! Still waiting for pics of Colby...

I love all dogs and all breeds are excellent, however, the pic of the GSD posted by Wolfsoul is incredible! Wolfsoul, is that your pooch?

Anna, your rottie is indeed a beautiful specimen!

:D :D :D

[ParNone]

colorwise - Collies... Such a variety to pick from. My fave
being the blue merle...
http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid67/p62ca928af111bf227f6e3d2ee5bed312/fbd6eb43.jpg

furwise - Collies... Because again, you've got variety. The long, glamorous, luxurious coat of the Rough
http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid67/pf6045d69debf5c74538605226ca4520c/fbd6eb3e.jpg

Or the nice, neat, low maintenance coat of the Smooth (but which
still has enough soft fur to be majorily huggable:)):
http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid61/pee7d8deab27daa51ad6217ea47f93050/fc35d3ff.jpg

body - Cairn... Hard to beat... that cute lil' body just screams
out fun!
http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid61/pb1883f2714d5ac30fd288791768171e1/fc35d409.jpg

overall - Again Collie... They're extremely versatile. There's just
so much you can do with a Collie, due not only to body type
and size, but to temperament and their willingness to do
whatever you ask of them. And who could resist something
this cute and furry;)

Par, I just LOVE your Smooth Collie, Oz! He's a big loveable hunk of dog! ;) He has beautiful coloring. I love his blue eyes..very pretty. :)

[ParNone]

Thanks foam! I love the big galoot a whole heck of
a lot myself:)

[cocker_luva]

COLORWISE I think a tan/white cocker spaniel

FURWISE I think the english cocker spaniel; it is sporty and alittle 'setter-like'

BODY SHAPEWISE I think the doberman; it is muscular yet slender

OVERALL I think the english cocker spaniel; it can be tan/white, nice fur, slender and muscular. it is all good.

*the only reason i didn't pick the american cocker is that i'm not big on their longhair. it takes alot to help my Jesse's fur to not get matted and knotted. good thing it is summer, we just shave her and we are all happy, and she is cool.

http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid71/p1db3b179508ba50fe8de17562a183bc6/fb985b1f.jpg

I prefer a short haired dog.
I like any dog that looks healthy and well loved.
