I have never had a dog that I didn't totally enjoy. From 135 pound Great Danes
to 4 pound Toy Poodles. Pure-breds to mixed breeds. I have loved them all. I
never met a dog I didn't bond with and easily train to live with and go out in
public with. Some respond differently to training; I always felt it was MY job
to learn to communicate with them and live happily ever after. ALL dogs just
want to read you and please you. I would have any of them all over again, and
do hope that there really is a "Rainbow Bridge." If there are no dogs in
Heaven, then it can't be Heaven, right?
I want a Xolo. I want a terrier. I want them ALL!! I won't live long
enough!
My favorite breed is the Poodle. I have had a mini and a toy. Some day I hope
to have a standard. I couldn't show a poodle, so, I will wait until my
competitive spirit has aged out.
:-) They are protective, ever so intelligent...........and..........they DON'T
shed!!
I think the reason that I drifted into the GSD world is because my father
wouldn't let me have one as a child. He didn't trust them. I had to prove him
wrong, of course! But, he introduced me into the show world, enthralling me
with stories of Westminster. He bought me my 1st AKC dog, a Beagle. Now,
being the typical rebellious child of the 60's, I have had a few GSDs. I have
enjoyed having Harley to experience this world with. Never again, but, WHAT A
RIDE he gave to me!! I do love the all-breed shows. I don't go to many
specialties. I find them boring.
If only I could get over this thrill of Eukanuba and Westminster.............I
maybe then could be a normal person????
This is my opinion and my experience. I just plain LOVE DOGS!! I really don't
consider the GSD better or worse than any other breed. They are all dogs, the
most wonderful of species.
