    Mich and Carole - I am sorry you had a bad experience with some people regarding your Poodle.

    I may not have a poodle, but friends do and they are GORGEOUS.

    Mich - Same applies to your Labradoodle. I saw a blind man this morning with a black one ..... beautiful.

    I must admit I was "against" cross breeding the Lab and Poodle, but can see why it was done originally, and hold no "malice" towards them, they are lovely!!! They have the great qualites of BOTH dogs.

    I listed a few when I was using my original username...but I just thought of a breed...

    I don't think I'd get an afghan anytime soon. I wouldn't mind grooming them because I'd groom them day and night if I had to but they're generally too independant for me. But I do think they're gorgeous dogs...I met a couple who had 2 afghan's that did a "superdogs" show. I had nothing but total respect for them because their dogs were so well trained and very obedient.

    Mine would be really any type of small yappy foo foo dog, bichons, all sizes of poodles, yorkies etc. I don't like Dalmations either.

    I don't have a least favorite breed at all.

    I don't get along with every person I meet. I get along with every dog I meet. I love every dog I have met so far which is a lot. I got bitten by a dalamation when I was small. Do I hate the breed? No! I would love to have one.

    Every dog is special and every dog is different. Just because a person had a bad experience with ONE dog of ONE breed does not mean all the dogs of the breed are bad.

    If you're listening to this song
    You may think the chords are going wrong
    But they're not
    We just wrote it like that

    When you're listening late at night
    You may think the band are not quite right
    But they are, they just play it like that

    It doesn't really matter what chords I play
    What words I say or time of day it is
    As it's only a Northern song

    It doesn't really matter what clothes I wear
    Or how I fare or if my hair is brown
    When it's only a Northern song

    If you think the harmony
    Is a little dark and out of key
    You're correct, there's nobody there

    And I told you there's no one there

    I don't *hate* any specific breed. However probably because I have never been personally aquainted with one I am a bit intimidated by Dobermans and Jack Russel Terriers. I understand that they can be very sweet, but I guess I just need to meet one in person.

    Since I'm new here and lurk most of the time and I have hesitated to post much because I have a maltese(the dreaded tiny foo-foo dog)I'm probably older than most if not all of you but I just want to say that over the the past 40 years I have had a variety of breeds in my life and they all held a special appeal to me. I have had cockers, shelties, goldens, german shepherds, mutts and so on. Most of the time we have had big dogs but I finally told my husband that I wanted a lap dog, he threw a fit because he likes big dogs. The reason I wanted a tiny dog was because I'm at an age where I needed something that was easier for me to handle(strength) the benefits are that I can take him with me more, I have even taken him into stores shopping. He eats less, poops less, I can walk and carry him with ease. He fits my life stage. In the past I alway prefered long haired dogs and wasn't attracted to the short hair type but as I age I have realized that my list of dogs I find appealing has grown. Dogs that I would have thought were unattractive 10 years ago I now look at them and actually see the beauty in the unique appearance of each breed. I find myself thinking "what a beautiful Saluki, Greyhound, Boxer, Crested, etc" all of which in the past held no appeal for me. Yes, I have been bitten by a Boston Terrier and a Dachshund and thought I disliked those breeds but have since met other Boston's and Dachshunds that I thought were sweet and cute. My cousin was almost killed by a chow about 40 years ago and I thought I hated chows but my sister-in-law had one that was a sweetheart. I have learned that it's the individual dog or owner that forms our opinions. Bottom line is that years from now you may find that your list of dogs that you like or dislike will change. I love them all and hope I have the time to enjoy many more. Looking into those brown (or blue) eyes just melt my heart.

    min pin, chihuahuas, greyhounds, whippets, or spaniels.

    umm.... Let me think.. I would never get a shih tzu or a lhasa apso, poms, shelties, poodles *of any kind*, because they all need to much grooming.

    , bernese mountain dogs, saint bernards, malamutes, great danes. Because they dont live long and they are too big.
    this is my first post, but I pretty much agree with these choices.

    I don't hate any breeds, but breeds that do not fit my lifestyle right now are: poodles, shih-tzu's lhasa apso, terriers. They are just not the right breeds for me right now. As far as fav breeds...

    2.American Pit Bull Terrier
    3.Border Collie
    And all mutts!!!!!!!!!!
    Blame the deed not the breed!
