Thread: What breed do you find prettiest?

  1. #1

    What breed do you find prettiest?

    I've always liked Border Collies (they kinda look like beautiful mutts to me), Dobermans (especially the redish ones when their ears are up), Bernese Mountain Dogs (love their jolly faces, shaggy fur, and coloring), Siberian Huskies (especially when they have blue eyes), labrador retrievers (such a happy go lucky family dog look), bull terriers, salukis, basset hounds, and many more.

    Breeds I'm less of a fan of (just appearance wise) are labradoodles, certain terriers (only when it looks like they have a mustache big enough to get spaghetti caught in it), old english sheepdogs, boster terriers, bulldogs, etc.

    How about all of you?

    Smooth Collies!! Just love the look.. love the roughs too, but prefer smooths...

    I also love Aussies, Bernese Mountain Dogs, boxers, bull mastiffs!! Dobies... Tibetan Mastiffs...

    And while I typically don't like dogs with furry/shaggy faces, I for some reason think German Wirehaired Pointers are beautiful!.. and cute!!..

    There are a lot more too.. but these are the ones that popped into my head...lol
    If you're gonna breed Collies, don't you forget to breed in the brains and common sense. Without that you won't have a Collie, you'll have just another dog.

    I just like dogs. I hope to have one some day.

    Edited to say: I always love to see photos of Orangutango's Dance, but I am not sure what breed she is. I love her color and her little white feet!

    I don't think there is anything as beautiful as a freshly groomed poodle, but of course no one here would expect me to say anything else.

    Of course I'd choose Aussie's first - blue merles mainly.
    But there are so many other breeds (and mixed breeds) out there that are so pretty. All of the breeds named above I like. So for me this is an impossible question.
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    Tollers
    Shelties
    Rough Collies
    Border Collies (working)
    Belgian Shepherds (Terv, Groen, & Mal... Laekenois are too scruffy for me, lol)

    Siberian Huskies

    Cassiesmom, Dance is a Toller.

    I think all dogs are pretty in their own way, BUT there are a few breeds that make me drool.

    I enjoy a Great Dane with a beautiful head.


    A well coated Aussie.(this is my Talon's daddy)


    A brindle Afghan Hound.


    A Saint with a fluffy squishy face.


    There are a lot more, but those are my top favorites.

    I'm not sure I would call them all pretty, but physically appealing (because some are more cute than pretty).
    Spitz
    Toller
    Shih-tzu
    Poodle
    Tibetan Spaniel
    Shiba Inu
    Bernese Mountain Dog
    Chow Chow

    I think those are the dogs that would make me pull over and stare.

    IRISH WOLFHOUNDS!
    I don't know what it is, but this breed is just to die for. I plan on having one when I get my own place.

    I also like Tollers, Goldens (the ones with the big thick light colored coat), Bernese Mt. Dogs, St. Bernards, Wirehaired Pointing Griffons, Afghans, Salukis, Borzois... anything big and hairy!
