What is your favorite size of dog?

WOW I call corgis and cockers SMALL BY FAR! What is a dane then?? Well I like meduim and upwards generally. I classify usually as follows:
up to 10 lbs: tiny
11-25/30 lbs: small
30-50 lbs: medium
50-100 lbs: large
over 100 lbs: XL
Niņo is 53 lbs, very muscled, and medium, height wize he is the small side of medium. (stocky) Some people call dals large :eek: they are really smaller than you might think. Niņo's coat is size XL, what idiot did that! I think it it was mislabled
In my experiences, size went by inches and measurements or height, not by weight. Hehe.
Anyway yes, cockers and such in my opinion would be SMALL dogs, not medium. Chihuahuas and the like would be extra small.
Aussies and BCs are medium sized dogs and my favorite!! I would own medium, but I would also own any size larger.
GIANT! A la Great Dane.
Large is second, medium third, etc. etc.
i like large to extra large the most
To me:
tiny are:teacup poodles and any teacup dog
small:are toys
medium:cockers,corgis,beagles,bassets,ect..
large:labs,shelties,goldens,ect..
x-large are:German Shepherd,great danes,irish wolfhounds,ect...
My favorite is Medium + dogs and thats probably all I'll own in the future. I have 3 small dogs (two twenty pounders and an eight pounder) and wouldn't trade them for the world but the worst feature of the little dog (jmo) is housetraining issues. If their schedule is thrown off the littlist bit they will potty in the house and I hate it!
large and X-large.
I had a Dalmatian and i considered her large.
Medium to large for me.
Sammy, really? I know some can be but when I went to the dal specialty I was surprised by how small they were, Layla was bigger
yup:).She weighed around 70lbs,but she was overweight from thyroid problems.Roughly she was between 19-21 inches tall.Actually most Dals that i meet now are fairly tall.Quote:

I love all sizes!
I love big working dogs large to extra large...anything that seems mean but when you get to know them are really just puppies at heart!
Crazy_caique, just to clarify, there is no such thing as "Teacup" or "Tiny Toy" dogs. They're simply Toy breeds that are often no smaller than the standard size! BYBs and pup millers just use that term as a selling gimmick. Oftentimes, these dogs run *over* the weight limit, LOL.
Me, I love extra large dogs!!! It's no surprise considering my favorite breeds are Greyhounds, Borzois, Dobermans, etc. I like big dogs whose mere appearance wards off intruders.
The bigger the better for me in general, but then Beagles are my favorites dogs. Go figure. :rolleyes:
XL for me, most breeds I wish would be bigger. And cockers as an exception, nobody in my family would go very long without a cocker.

thank you i didn't know that!
I like large to extra large, and then really tiny breeds...like Yorkies, some Chihuahuas, etc. Actually I like all size dogs, to tell you the truth.
I like medium and large size dogs both the same, between Aussie-ish size up to about a larger shepherdish size.
I like them all. I have 3 different sizes now. :D
