I adore big dogs! My first dogs were two black labs, Magic and Warlock. They were intelligent beyond comprehension (had NEVER been trained). I really want a pure white German Shepherd, but the condo-cops would be all over this :rolleyes: I like Huskies, too. This is what endeared me to Yorkies (in part). Yorkies are like having a big dog, but in a little package :) Maybe since I'm used to larger breeds is why the quirks of the smaller ones are a bit annoying to me (not Yorkies, of course :luv:). But, nah, like I said, I don't hate any breed. Just like some less than others is a nicer way of phrasing it, I suppose. |
Btw....I am PMing w/ "Miss Behavin" - who sent me a lovely PM -- and I hope she doesn't mind me mentioning this...but English is *not* her 1st language, so that probably explains the use of a word in English without realizing their colloquial use. I just had to mention that :). |

I not sure if i dislike pitbulls or if Im just afraid and not very educated in them. I have learned a lot more since they have been in the news so much and I do agree that "bad" dogs are the result of bad owners. You see some that just seems so sweet and lovable, in the next instant you see one attack something or someone and just dont know what to think.:confused: |
I hate Chow Chow's. One came into my yard and picked up my little poodle mix and took off with him in his mouth. He survived that time but wasn't so lucky the next, neither was the Chow Chow. Can't say I really hate any other breed. There are those I don't care for. I had a shih Tzu for 14 years, I loved him to death but his name was Rambo and he lived up to it. He would just as soon bite you as not if he didn't want to do something. I wouldn't trust them with small children. I love smushie face dogs I have one a boxer, Love mini-schnauzers, Collies, shetland sheepdogs, border collies and last but definitely not least yorkies. As far as aggressiveness I think pound for pound the smaller breeds win hands down. Now, this is totally my opinion and you know what they say about opinions.:D |

the only thing i can thing of is maybe some ppl don't like how shih tzus look. personally, i just don't like the spelling of their name. i always get it wrong. LOL. i don't have a breed of dog that i don't like. i just don't like dogs that are mean and unsocialized. it doesn't matter what breed to me. |
How about Peks? Never been a big fan...The eyes, the nose (or lack there of) and the coat....No Thanks! |

Its not that I hate any particular breed of dog , I was just never a dog person in general because I'm afraid of most of them ! My first memory of a dog was our chihuahua biting me on Christmas morning ( I was about three) and then there were two German Shepards that use to chase me relentlessly whenever I was walking around our neighborhood , and my brother had five dobermans that were trained killers ( atleast thats how I saw them ;)) I was convinced they would eat me in my sleep :rolleyes: So I do dislike any breed of big dog , like Pitts and Rottweilers , but its because I'm afraid of what they can do to me not because of what they look like. Actually I love the look of Bulldogs , I don't know why but they look really cute to me :p (aside from the slobber) If I had to dislike any smaller dog I guess it would be Pekingese because my gran had some mean ones. |
I dont dislike any dog breeds either.. I do however dislike the owners when they have an out of control dog.. :).. I have owned or known many breeds and mixes and didnt have a problem with any of them..I had a shihtzu and she was fanatastic and one of the smartest dogs I owned, a pain in the butt nevertheless to groom but she was a great dog. I have owned big giant rotties right down to tiny 3 pound poodles and all were great well behaved dogs. oh and as far as the snoring goes, its just not flat face, bugged eyed dogs.. my little poodle snores as almost as loud as my 250 pound husband and so does my beagle..:) |
I would feel bad saying that I don't like a particular breed of dog .... BUT :) my Aunt and Uncle had a Boston Terrier that was repulsive IMO. He scared me to death for one thing as he was very, very aggressive. Then he would slobber all over me and I just couldn't get him to move away. I would leave their house soaked to the skin from his slobbering. I also think it was the way he was raised and, believe it or not, he was the only Boston I've ever met up close and personal. |
It is not so much that I hate the breed, but I am terribly scared of pit bulls. There has been too many incidents with them around here. I love the squished face look which is one reason I got the boston terrier. My mom and dad have a shih tzu which is highly intelligent. It knows how to open the gate herself when she wants out. They say thier inteligence is that of a two year old human child. I love to have a bulldog but the price is outrageous around here about 1500. I chose the boston over a pug due to shedding. |

Shihtzu's are actually pretty far down as far as their intelligence goes (according to tests, of course, so who knows!). I think they're like number 71 or something (Yorkies are #27). So I'm surprised to see all these smart shihtzu stories, hehe. Oh, I'm also not too big on Bassett Hounds for some reason -- just lookswise though. I know nothing about their personalities. |
