What kind of dog would you want for life?

Border Collie no contest.

[Genny]

I'd say a collie!

It's impossible to choose just one for me. I love both of my current breeds equally, but for different reasons. I can't choose one over the other... one of each (a Toller and a Dobe) is ideal to me at this point in my life. And who knows, at some point I might want to try another breed as well. I like variety.

Well I'm not sure if I could pick only one. It would be a toss up between a Rottweiler and a Chow.

I don't think I can honestly say a particular breed yet. I do know I always want a medium-sized dog capable of long walks/hikes and other physical exercise. Right now Ethan fits that criteria perfectly.

Gosh, this is such a difficult question for me!
I've never owned anything besides Labrador Retrievers. I love them to death, but they are so common, but for a good reason, they are excellent family dogs, and for the most part, have wonderful friendly, goofy temperaments! I think all Labs have a somewhat different personalities, Sadie and Rita are nothing alike, LOL!

I could definitely see myself owning a larger breed, like a Rottweiler. I could also see myself with a Soft Coated Wheaton Terrier, my neighbor has a Wheaton girl (Maggie) and she's so full of life! Wheaton's are very high energy dogs, and need constant exercise! Well, they are Terriers!
I have also found myself to be very fond of Pugs. They have numerous health problems, this breed is basically a mess health wise. They are great little dogs, and I love the fact that they think they are huge. They have such spunky personalities, and I love that in a dog.

Other than that, I'm not completely sure on which breed I will own next, lol!

It would probably be Dalmatians.
