The One True Dog Thread

[Joods]

Nope. You all are wrong. You need to get an Old English Sheepdog, combined with an Irish Wolfhound. And you need to get one from a shelter where the workers will assure you that the most the dog will ever weigh is 35 pounds.

Forget looking at the massive puppy paws when the dog is 9 weeks old. Discard the 195 pounds it'll weigh when it's two years old. Ignore the fact that when standing on its hind legs, it will see eye to eye with a man six feet tall or that when sitting, it can easily steal food from a plate at the table. Just buy it a seven foot long couch as a chew toy and you're all set!
That my story and I'm sticking to it.

Best. Dog. Ever.

Rat Dog will hump your legs.

And anything else that isn't nailed down!

I have a friend with a rat terrier and a heeler. She swears by them.

Look, just because one of my pit mixes thinks it's a good idea to frequently barrel face-first into furniture and other easily avoided obstacles and the other will make me go fifteen rounds just to keep her from eating five pounds of goose shit on our walks doesn't mean they aren't the Two True Dogs. They're just . . . special.

Borders are fantastic dogs as long as you can keep them busy.  Once bored, they will - sure as shit - get into trouble.

Agreed. My mother -in-law has a cross between a border and a greyhound. It is intelligent to get into trouble really quickly.

I was brought up with Great Danes. They are everything that you could possibly want from a dog, unless you want it to live for a long time, have it swim or stick it in your handbag.

Friend of mine had a harlequin. He had pictures of him and the dog in the windows with signs saying "Warning, mortuaries don't take dog shit."

Damn.  Got the walking erect thing down.  Can't tell from the photo but how are the opposable thumbs coming along?

Lol no comments about my 195 lb dog. Shocking.

Reminds me of the neighbour's dog. It would stand up like that and let us stroke it's tummy. So cute.
