awwwwwwwwwwww a golden retriever is my best...I knew it

awww they are nice dogs. Was the first dog I ever had and she was so smart and good with kids great family dog

My best was a mastiff just not sure I could deal with a 150+ pound dog on my bed with me..lol

i had a german shepherd mix, she was a doll, she was my baby...>sniffle<

I always wanted a German Shepard might be the next dog I get. I want an all black one...they are hard to come by at least I havent seen too many pure black ones

Clumber Spaniel??

I like all dogs though. It's all in the upbringing, not the breed. But this was very interesting. I went through the whole list of dogs they gave me and I found it very interesting that all my "favorite" breeds were listed toward the bottom of my BestDog list.

says my best match is a Bearded Collie
Edited to add: I know that my best match is actuallu a Collie/Retriever mix

LOL, Dachshund 58 (guess we just aren't a good mix)

My best were:
Basset Hound 88
Bichon Frise 88
Cav. King Charles Spaniel 88
Pug 86
Beagle 86
Border Terrier 86
Bearded Collie 84
Shih Tzu 84
Eng. Cocker Spaniel 84

Flat Coated Retriever 80
Papillon 80
Old Eng. Sheepdog 80
Wheaten Terrier 80

I love the Clumber Spaniel..lol
They are often referred to as "The Gentlemans Spaniel" because they are lower to the ground(shorter legs) thicker body and head than other spaniels. In theory they are slower than lets say and English Springer Spaniel or a Brittney when searching out birds. You must have put a low exercise on your questionaire..lol

lol that is funny. my current dog, a brittany, was higher up on my list and got a score of 68. i always have said some day i want to have a wire haired pointing griffon (i think i even posted it on this forum in one of the dog threads) and it was the top breed on my list with a score of 91

edited because i typed 81 instead of 91

My fav dogs: Labs, German Sheperds, Australian Sheperds, mutts (LOL) and I really like Weimaraners.

But this quiz said my best pics are:

Labrador Retriever 90
Basset Hound 90

(I like Bassets.. my aunt rescues them. But I wouldn't want one as a pet. My aunt spends most of her money caring for them.. they seem to have lots of health problems. Or maybe just hers do )


Where my other favs rank according to my preferences:
Aust. Shepherd 73
German Shepherd 59

And my husband's favorite:
Siberian Husky 76

Woof

They are small-but they have huge hearts!


When I was a kid we had a toy fox terrier (think jack russel) he thought he was a big dog-he faced down the german shepard (who was an ex-police dog) and usually won the growl. They never actually fought - just would growl at each other until one would back away. I miss that dog

i hear basset hounds are really smelly though.. i've always wanted a beagle, and it ranks pretty high for me

Brittany's (note spelling) are not actually spaniels, they are cousins to the spaniels. Most resources incorrectly refer to them as spaniels. But they are usually at least spelled right
