I have a poodle that comes in about 75 lbs. Nuff said.
And as far as little yip-yip dogs, Corgis are also on the allowable list, but that's about it.
We currently have an Aussie Shepherd.(http://www.petside.com/sites/default/files/imagecache/fullsize_article/breeds/australian-shepherd.jpg)
Friendliest dog you could ask for, to family, friends and strangers alike. Until you look to be threatening his family, and then the "Shepherd" part of his genes kicks in, and he'll tear into you like you were the Big Bad Wolf himself.
That is a beautiful dog. How old is it?
The pic isn't of our specific dog, just and innerwebz pic of one typical of the breed. Ours is about 2-1/2 years old (he was a rescue, so we don't know his exact age) and has a lot more white in his coat with the ruddy brown markings.
OK! We really like people who adopt rescue dogs. My wife works at a local shelter and walks dogs about 3 times a week. We got our latest at the vet's, but he'd have gone to that center if no one else adopted him.
He's turned out to be a good buddy, but he loves to run and search for critters and birds. He tries to solve our mole problem, too! He got loose the other day, and we gave up looking for him, when BANG! :panic: he came home trotting down our driveway! Amazing, since we only had him for a very short time. How did he know where his home was?
We have two Yorkies.
Anyone here gonna say I'm not a man?

Not at all. My two gay buddies have 2 of'em, Max and Bosley. :stirpot:
I have a Bassett Hound. His name is Charlie and he's my Sweet Baboo. <3

We have a Sheltie, would post a photo but I'm not sure how to do that.

I have an Aussie too!! Blue Merle variety . . . wants to do nothing all day but herd things! Especially the cat :-)

I love yorkies. Best dog I ever had. Until my bitch ex-wife broke in my apartment and stole her then ****ing sold her for drugs. :censored: :censored: :censored: :censored: :censored: :censored:
That's probably one instance where I'd break the cardinal rule and exercise a beat down on a female. 😡
It was probably the most mad I have ever been at her, or anyone else for that matter. Fibi was my baby. She followed me around everywhere, would give me kisses, would mind me, slept in my arms every night since I brought her home as a little pup.
Just have to pray she was sold by the bitch to a good family. Sorry for calling your ex that, but I'm an avid dog lover and could not IMAGINE someone doing that to Bru and Ben. I'd go homicidal.
Inner Strength
If you can start the day without caffeine or pep pills
If you can be cheerful, ignoring aches and pains,
If you can resist complaining and boring people with your troubles,
If you can eat the same food everyday and be grateful for it,
If you can understand when loved ones are too busy to give you time,
If you can overlook when people take things out on you when, through no fault of yours, something goes wrong,
If you can take criticism and blame without resentment,
If you can face the world without lies and deceit,
If you can conquer tension without medical help,
If you can relax without liquor,
If you can sleep without the aid of drugs,
If you can do all these things,
Then you are probably the family dog.
We love bassets! Their reputation for counter cruising is well earned, too. And our Barney ate (wrappers and all) two unopened loaves of French bread one Thanksgiving.
Barney was a great traveler. He died last year.
We have a Golden and a stray mutt. The stray has a lot of retriever in him. My son has a rescue who is mostly Great Pyrenees.
I would love to have a dog. I will definitely get a rescue dog. Will have to look into it...
Countless studies show dogs making you a happier person. ...unless you wind up getting Satan's spawn.

Nothing wrong with lap dogs as long as they act like regular dogs. I thing training has a lot to do with it.

I'd like to see her try that with my dogs. She'd be back to baking.
Mrs E is fond of telling the story of how a good friend of hers decided to do up a dozen deviled eggs.
The friend left the deviled eggs on the counter and like the good counter-surfer her standard poodle was (since passed on), those disappeared down the gullet most ricky-tick.
We're talking eggs. In a dog. Do the math.
The friend did so, gathered up the dog and a 3-day supply of regular dog food, dropped the dog off at the local kennel and instructed:
"Call me when it's over."

I love my Yorkie and any who don't like it can kiss my ass... :bird:Maybe I will...
Ya know, I would offer that, if one rescues a dog from a shelter, no matter if it's a Pappilon, it's acceptable--just because of the circumstances of how one obtained the dog.Yep. I can agree with that. :hi5:
A pappilon:

If one was obtained from a shelter, it's good, AFAIC.
