FloppsyLadySally89 please rate my breed.

ok never mind the rottweiler...found it. But need dashunds.

And the rottie one doesn't sound like Phoebe, she is very playful and very affectionate. She also gets along with other dogs. Deisel is very, very playful and very affectionate as well and he is rottie/German Shepard.

Also if I read it correct, did it say grooming for rottie rate:1. That is a bad rating and I thought and know that rotties don't need alot of grooming! Maybe I read it wrong?

What about the lab?????

**lv4dogs** · 09-18-2002, 07:32 AM

If you have time how about a Rottweiller?

O.K. how about a Schnauzer that should be a challenge. LOL

Sure, I LOVE Schnauzers! And I also love Dasunds. A lot of people asked for Rottweiler. It's somewhere in there, I know I did it. Since I know three different breeds of Schnauzers, I'll do them all.

Thank you FloppsyLadySally. Of course some of the ratings do not match Bob, but that is because it is a general thing about the breeds, and as we all know our dogs all have their individual quirks! But it came pretty close for Bob and very close for in the case of three other Springers I know!

I just want to mention the ratings, how I read them and you can tell me if I am right or not.
***** would mean, say for grooming, exercise that sort of thing, that the dog needs a lot. Whereas * or ** would mean doesn`t need much. And with *** or **** being somewhere in-between?

Once again, thankyou for the information, it is very interesting.
