Best Looking Dog Breed?

[CreatureTeacher]

oh come on. They are ALL gorgeous. Gus, sunny, kharma, mav, hitch, patak.. all of them

Yeah, I think you're right. I think this is the best lookin' collection of dogs on the net!

 

[tjscrittergrl]

Mutts are great. That's all I have and my dogs are gorgeous.

My thoughts exactly!

 

[Renee750il]

I'm pretty much smitten by whichever one I'm looking at at any given time.

The one I never want to be without, whatever other kinds of dog I may have though is a German Shepherd.

I always liked GSDs when I was a kid and never had a dog. I guess with Nanook I get to have a real taste. Although she seems to have more husky in her.

As much as I love goldens as a package, I must admit that there's nothing more beautiful to look at than a well bred GS with alert ears, a smile,and bright loving eyes. ( don't tell Chip!!)

I absolutely love the Shepherds. I was at my daughter's soccer game just this past weekend when someone on the oppisite team brought a Shepherd which was absolutely gorgeous! I almost fell out of my chair drooling! I looked at Tony and said, 'that's my next dog' he looked at me and rolled his eyes and said 'yeah right, not in my lifetime' I think he still has flashbacks from when we had my brothers dog for a month. He's not too keen on large dogs. I grew up with Shepherds and would love to be owned by one again. hooo hummmm one of these days ... he'll give in.

A German Shepherd is a medium sized dog, so you can have your GSD, Avenlee! I thought they were large dogs, too, back before I actually HAD large dogs, lol!

 

[Doberluv]

I love a Standard Poodle's posture too and that gait. That's another thing I love to watch....various gaits, or ways of going. And I love Arabian horses. That's probably part of why I love Dobermans. They remind me of Arabians...how they prance around and toss their heads, stop short when they're playing and act like general goof balls, but yet, so very extra intelligent....and soooo intensly into their people.

 

[Saintgirl]

We've all heard that beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and I think that each breed has something incredibly beautiful to contribute to dogs on a whole. But I am still a softey for the giant breed dogs. Whenever I see a giant dog I always stand back in awe!

 

[BassetLover**]

i love giant breeds but i also love the jack russells and of course basett hounds!

 

[RD]

I think that Border Collies are some of the most beautiful dogs. Soft fur, soft noses... Well-balanced, lean muscular builds, (I like a balanced, in-proportion dog. No extremes.) and best of all, very 'sharp' eyes.

But, looks aren't half of what drew me to BCs. Their intelligence is what attracts me to them, and that is what makes them genuinely beautiful.

 

[Renee750il]

I hope you didn't let Ripley see that!

 

[gaddylovesdogs]

Border Collies---I love their coats and you they're expressions.

Canaan Dogs---Beautiful coats!

Labrador Retriever---I like their build a lot.

 

[Adrienne]

I love how the Caucasian Ovcharka looks. My mom has one named Katya and she is just goregous. The picture I have of her isn't the greatest but here it is anyway:

and here is another one of a Ovcharka so you can see what they look like.

I also think Irish Wolfhounds beautiful

 

[bubbatd]

I do love the large breeds too.....The more massive and regal the better. I would love a Newfie....but temp here, my live style etc wouldn't be fair to him. (They do drool more than golden's too Q

 

[Saje]

Maverick doesn't drool as much as I thought he would. Probably cuz he's not pure. He just drools when he smells something good or if he's really hot. Not like that dog in Turner and Hooch.

 

[Dobepip]

Dobermans are the best looking dog breed.

 

[RD]

I hope you didn't let Ripley see that!

Hey, if we're talking favorite breed under 20lbs, the Papillon wins hands down. They're by far one of the most unique looking breeds and provided that they're not the dogs that seem to be winning in the show ring lately. (The things have more hair than a pomeranian and IMO don't look like paps. Strange how "breeders" will alter their breeding program to suit what is popular in the ring.) A Pap with moderate coat and lots of body color, none of these all-white dogs with color only on their head, and a soft expression is one of the best looking toy breeds, because you can just see the spaniel in them.

If you couldn't tell, I like long-haired dogs. I like to groom (although the boys need very little grooming. sigh.) and I just love to sit down and play with my dog's hair. It also just looks so good, a dog with a long coat that is well cared-for is just absolutely stunning. People have suggested to get a smooth coated Border Collie when I get my working BC pup, and I just can't do it. I love their hair.

It's strange with many breeds, because I don't like them based on looks at all. The Doberman Pinscher is an example of that. Sure, they're great looking dogs, but if I had to choose based on looks, I'd pass them up because they are not my "style". It's their personalities and clownish nature that draws me to them.

 

[Watts]

Weimaraners in my opinion are the best looking. That's one of the reasons i got one. Their build, color and overall presence. But i also like a well bred Chocolate Lab, as well as Goldens/Chesepeak bay Retrieveres. Some labs get overweight easily and kinda spoils the beauty of thier breed. Not saying that's a bad thing at all though. A chubby dog is a happy dog! (most of the time)

 

[Amstaffer]

The Best looking Dog is the......Drum roll please.....The one who greets you when you walk in the door.

But really, in my opinion, it is a well muscled male black American Staffordshire Terrier. However I am somewhat bias because that is the face I see when I get home.
