Dog breeds you think you'll try in the future I have a few breeds in mind for the future but I am not sure I'd want them anytime soon... at least while Jackson is still here. So I'm talking 15 or more years down the road for some of these. Mastiff- I could see myself with a Mastiff when I'm maybe not as active or into traveling, doing dog sports, and being really active in general with my dog, but just wanting a companion/protector who would enjoy evening walks, or even when I have a family. I would not mind the extensive training or socialization that, I think, should come along with the breed at all. But lately I've been really into Mastiff's but I just know they would NOT fit my current lifestyle at all. American Kennel Club - Mastiff Pugs- I think they are so fun! But again, I am not sure it'd be what I'm looking for currently in my life. I think they would be a great breed when I have a family someday and just want a friendly dog who will love everyone and not need a ton of exercise (but I'd be willing to give it of course too but didn't NEED it so much). I just think they are so loveable and comical. American Kennel Club - Pug German Shepherd- I had one growing up and unfortunately we got her from a bad place, plus her lack of training/socialization, and exercise, she ended up hating strangers. But she was an amazing family dog and really the first dog I truly bonded with. I still have fond memories of her. I'd really love a go at a well bred well trained GSD again someday but again, not currently in my life would they be a great fit. I'd wait until I was more settled. Now, breeds that I probably WOULD own with Jackson and in more current... maybe within the next 3 years or so. Border Collie- I've been so intrigued by them lately but I really need to meet more to get a real feel for them. But since I am so active and enjoy doing things with my dogs, I think they would be a good fit. Plus I think they are gorgeous. I like their size too, not TOO huge, but not too small either. American Kennel Club - Border Collie Papillon- I think they are adorable, lively, smart, and so fast paced which I love in a dog. But I am not sure if our personalities would mesh yet, again I'd have to meet more of them. American Kennel Club - Papillon Westie- I've always had a soft spot for Westies. Actually Jackson kind of reminds me of a lot of the Westie's I've met in personality so I really think I'd love them. I attend some of the Westie meet ups they have at our dog park by pure accident and I always love seeing a park full of them. American Kennel Club - West Highland White Terrier But really... I like having 'matching' dogs, Ha!! So I think my second will most likely be a Silky since they look/act so much like Jackson and I just can't let my heart pull me away from getting a Silky as my second dog. So that will probably end up happening... and then maybe one day down the road I can get two other matching dogs and have two pairs, aka 4 dogs (this is wayyy down the road!! ;)) Bored tonight... so, guys, do you have any breeds you'd like to try out? |
Chihuahua: fawn colored short-hair, tiny. I wouldn't mind having one with my Yorkies. I would love another super-sized Airedale terrier, but it wouldn't mix well with the smaller guys, and I'm hooked on the little doggies now. (I'm picturing the Airedale doing the rocking-horse run/dance with little ones underfoot....no way!) |
I have had so many dogs over the years, and so much experience with so many others. It's ironic that Yorkies/Silkies were never one of them, and by chance that Moka came into our lives through my daughter when she did. I just don't see myself ever having anything different. Of course, I don't see my lifestyle changing anytime soon that would change my feelings either. I do love large breed dogs though! |
Boxer (white) Bull Mastiff American Pit Bull Terrier Staffordshire Bull Terrier Great Dane Boston Terrier? Norfolk Terrier Saint Bernard Would have said PBGV and Westie, but I have either the first (pretty sure) or a Westie mix already. Whatever he is, he is a lot of work! Awesome dog though. |
I took one of those "which dog breed is best for you" tests and it stated that a Sheltie would be best for me. I think Shelties are beautiful so who knows? |
possibly a brussels griffon. I have already had a boxer, a german shepherd and a cairn terrier/poodle mix. Those were the dogs that we had when my kids were growing up, they were wonderful with the kids!! Now that are gone.....I have my yorkies! |
I would love an English Bulldog. |
I've had large breeds when I was younger but now that I hVe a small breed I can't see myself having large breeds again but if I did my husband and I agree a pit bull |
I would love to someday have a blue Pitt bull. |
My husband has always wanted a English bulldog. We thought about trying to add that to the family in a few years. |
I really like Cavalier King Charles Spaniels. Standard Poodle.. My sister wants one so bad. She worked with quite a few at a vet's office and she loved them;) I think they are so pretty:) I would love a Collie. I had one growing up that my parents gave away when I was very young maybe 6?... She was a smooth coated Collie. I still remember going to pick her up.. she was so pretty. I was devastated when they gave her away... |
I really like small dogs, but some small/medium dogs have caught my attention... but I do not know much about their activity level/personalities. Some of these are Shelties (MIL has one, and they are gorgeous!) Cavalier King Charles Spaniels Maltese Springer Spaniels Pomeranians These are all based on looks... so of course I wouldn't ever adopt one without doing the research :p However, I do not think I will be adding to my pack for about 15 or so years. I'm happy with where we are right now :D |

I love Cavalier King Charles Spaniels!! I think I would get a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel- Great Dane- Mastiff, or Brittney Spaniel (sp) |
If I had a huge chained yard I would love to own a golden retriever!I fostered one for a lady who's house burned down before I ever got my Yorkie babies and fell in love! |
I think I'll stay with Yorkies. My one daughter has 2 beautiful Cavaliers and they are sweet as can be but really hairy. My other daughter has a Bernese Mountain Dog and I'd love to have one but it doesn't fit my lifestyle and I don't fit it's life style.:) |
