Amen, Lee.  I love and adore my GSDS. I hope to always have them, but I also 
love my Papillon & BCs.   If someone asks me which I "love/like" the most, 
there's not a simple answer.  They are all brilliant, but they have different 
personalities, strengths, and train differently.  I like different things "the 
most" about each of them.
