Should I Get a Boy or a Girl?

[tiggerr36792]

Boys tend to be more cuddlers. If you want a Diva get a girl. My vote is for a boy!

Ohhh, it was pink for me!! No regrets!! We get the best of both worlds! Cuddly and affectionate along with lots of personallity!

I wouldn't trade her for anything! Bailey is not stubborn - nor is she submissive or passive. She knows her place in our family "pack". She is a lap dog, a companion, loves all people and loves to cuddle - but doesn't enjoy being carried.

She was easy to house train, never chewed, was never destructive. She stops and comes at every command and because of that, she lives a leash-free life (what freedom!). I will have to admit, that she does get annoyed if we make any noises when she is trying to nap - she'll let out a huge "sigh" and just stare. She just makes us laugh!!!

I have two females and one male. I have to say, that it is my male that is more affectionate. Actually, he's a big wussy mama's boy, but I don't mind.

I have two girls and they each display some of the common concerns for males. Zoeybear humps a stuffed rabbit even tho she is female and spayed. Baby Chloe is aggressive and hard to train but also a cuddler. I guess they are all so different, you never know who you are gonna get!

Well my vote would totally be for the girls. I have 2 girl dogs and LOVE them. I've heard about the boys being more cuddly but my girls are. I just would personally never get a boy dog because I hate the lifting of the leg. It is HORRIBLE when you are at a park or the beach and boy dogs come up and pee on your bag, or your blanket or your person!!! I've seen it happen way too much. I couldn't handle that!

My little guy is the biggest cuddlebug you could imagine. He is so totally a momma's boy too - I love it.

[foxyroxiesmom]

I love my little girl. She cuddles and kisses all the time. Its a matter of preference.

I say go with what your heart feels

My male is a cuddler. I can lay on the couch to watch tv and he will fall asleep on my chest after giving me lots of kisses. Pepper is my shadow, follows me every where. He is such a sweetie.

This is exactly why I chose a girl pup. I know boys are adorable too, however, the leg lifting was something I did not want to handle. I would go for the puppy that matches Your personality. You will have a gut feeling when you see the litter of puppies. Sit down on the floor, and see which one comes running to you with sweet puppy kissess all over your face. YOU will know, the one for you, leave your options open if you are not sure.
