I always find these lists a lil' ironic, because I do think they're somewhat Look based. Oz and now Gully made several lists and it's rare for Murph to make a list and I don't think Maddie's ever been on anybody's list. But if you'd met and interacted with my 4 in real life, I can pretty well guarantee the one you would have come away enthralled with, would have been Maddie. Nobody can work a room like Maddie Roo could.

It does seem like the more clean cut type dogs are more popular here vs the scruffy ones, which always has me scratching my head. Personally, I don't think there's anything cuter than a scruffy dog. So to all the cute scruffies out there, you're all at the top of my fave list.

As to the hurt feelings, I think that's pretty much human nature to want others to love what you love. But truly to your dogs, it really only matters what you feel. I recently found out that my Mom and Grandmother think Gully's Ugly. I told him, "Don't you listen to'em buddy. You're the most Beautiful to me", then so as not to give Oz and Murph inferiority complexes, I had to of course tell Oz, "He was the most Gorgeous" and to Murph, that "He was the most Cutest". All 3 were bouncing around, happy, happy, feeling the love, so I let the ugly comment go, because as long as they're getting love from me, it's obvious they really don't care about what anybody else thinks anyway.
