My guess is greyhound and bedlington terrier.

I think Rachel is right on the greyhound.
I think the second breed is the Dandie Dinmont.

1. the Labrador Retriever- which I hate because there are more dogs that are just as affectionate, possibly more but, no EVERYONE has to have one and diss my dog because she 'isn't suppose to be good with kids' but she is great with them!
2. I would say the Corgi (both breeds) because they are bred to herd and I read somewhere that they nip people just to herd them, even in their own house.

The cocker spaniel is a wonderfulll breed but you don't need to go diss the Lab they both are wonderfull dogs. They make good house pets.There is no reson to go dissin the Lab just cause you think the cocker spaniel is better. You can't judge a dog on what the majority of the breed is like but what that certain dog is like. I know a cocker spniel who is mean as anything then I know a nother cocker spaniel who is the sweetiest thing in the world. So pelase don't go saying stuff about another breed because people chooose that breed over the breed of dog you have. I'm not trying to be mean saying this I just don't think that it was right of you to say that about the lab its good the breed is popular. Thanx
