Lol, very cool. What about Silky's?
That's not really what I'm talking about though... I guess, I don't know what I'm trying to say.
Obviously some dogs are going to train easier, be less up keep, need less training, etc. If someone wanted a small, non shedding lap dog who did not require a ton of exercise, I wouldn't advise a German Shepherd Dog, for example. Different breeds may be more sensitive to certain things. If I wanted an easy to train dog always willing to listen to me, I wouldn't get a bulldog for example.
People are attracted to different breeds for different reasons. I really enjoy a high energy dog who is willing to go go go, I am also interested in dog sports (agility, frisbee, rally, etc) and my next dog breed will be chosen carefully with all of my "wants" in mind.
So that's not really what I'm talking about. Basically just that, like I said,
fundamentally dogs are dogs.
