This is fun. ? I have a Dutch shepherd now who is high drive, pretty?and sweet and fun.? But, I don't think I would want another one.? They are much like Mals?but not as psycho, LOL! Whippets:? Yes, I love them.??The right size, very sweet and not too fragile.? Plus, no shedding. Yorkies:? Have had a Yorkie almost all my life.? Thanks Mom :-)??I like?Yorkies cuz I could fit 10-15 of them in one GSD crate, LOL!? Too much work to show though.?? Labs:? I bred and showed Labs for almost 20 yrs.? Don't like the current style but if I wasn't showing, I would go back to Labs.? Field trial type. Aussie:? I?would take an Aussie over a BC.? Only because they have similar qualities of the GSD.? Loyalty and intelligence.? Border Collies are too independant for me.? I'll just get another cat if I want that :-) Laura Thomas? -----Original Message----- From: Kathy Tank <rbuffdogs@xxxxxxxxx> To: showgsd-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx <showgsd-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Tue, 11 Dec 2007 10:13 am Subject: [ SHOWGSD-L ] Just for fun...If not GSDs...what would you have? Hi Guys Just for fun, I was wondering what some of my favorite people would have (dog breed) if Heaven Forbid, they couldn't have a GSD. Name as many as you like , and why. Might be interesting to see. As for myself, I already have the Caucasion Ovtcharka, who is one of the most interesting dogs I have ever known, and would have another (if Ken wouldn't KILL me) But I also LOVE Dobies, great dogs when you get a good one. Also Border Collies, athletic, great mind, beautiful, high energy. Love whippets, sweet little couch potatoes that run like the wind...problem is getting them back, lol.
