Help me find a breed please

[gaddylovesdogs]

wre you offended when I said they could pack their own tennis balls and hunt squirrels and rabbits while camping lea?

good, I really didnt think I was saying anything offensive, and still dont understand how it was offensive. but oh well...glad to know theres a jack russel owner that isnt as easily offended as some people seem to be.
lea, your dog is just adorable by the way.

I read both of these as rude and sarcastic. It's hard to understand what people are saying online, as you can't see any facial expressions and you can't hear any tone.

Lea -

If I read it as offensive, I read it as offensive!! Geesh.

Stirder. The dog pictures on the wepsite you gave me, was all normal Shepherds. With the backs wrong, and butts kissing the floor. Don't he have any European Shepherds?

[gaddylovesdogs]

I was just saying that I was not speaking to you about jacks, I was talking to stirder. Sorry, I went a little overboard with you.

 

[stirder]

they are, like I said they are in the ugly pose for the pictures. trust me, contact him and tell him what you want. if he doesnt have what you want he will find it, and email you pics of all the dogs he finds. just tell him what you want in a dog and he will find a dog to make YOU drool. also tell HIM what your price range is, that way if its $500 max he wont waste time looking at $5,000 dogs. and he wont be offended if you look at pics he emails you and tell him they arent quite right. he may ask a few more questions, but he wont try to convince you into a dog that you arent sure about. and with his contacts he may know a few sarloos breeders you havnt found yet.
just give him an email and tell him as much as you can about what you want in a dog. tell him Brad (guy who baught Dior) reffered you.

lol... hes more of a then a

Indeed? I always thought of small dogs as nasty critters. I always see those little poodles, Terriers, and all their minions barking, and giving me a fierce look when I pass them. Most of the big dogs wants me to pat them. The small dogs just wants to bite me.

 

[poeluvr]

well no i no wat you mean, he likes to be petted, and if he didnt have people to love him he'd like die, hes a total suck...lol

 

[stirder]

most small dogs either want you to THINK they are tough so you wont hurt them, overcompesnating or they really think they ARE big and bad. depends on the dog. their all cute though.

I like big dogs for some reason. There's only a few small dogs I like. Beagles, Bassett Hounds, and a couple others.

My min pin thinks he is a dobie...he would bite someones arm off in a heart beat. not my fault though. the previous owners fault...thats why i named him "cujo" LOL

 

[poeluvr]

yea till recently i just wanted a malamute. a big cuddly teddybear. but i want a more portable dog, so i can take him to more places that is why i got a small

 

[wolfdoggy]

I never really liked small dogs. Guess that was because of my sisters Poodle, when I was a little boy. I hated that little beast. Where I live, there is about five of these small critters, all thinking they are the terror of the neighborhood.

But Poe is cute. He reminds me of a Border Collie pup, and I like Border Collies.

 

[BigDog2191]

So, what did you decide on? To me, a GSD sounds absolutely perfect. But Malamute comes in second.

 

[wolfdoggy]

I haven't come to a decision yet, but I'm pretty sure it will be a German Shepherd. I don't like the teddybear look on the Malamute.
One of my problems is that my mind is still trying to find an excuse to choose a Siberian Husky. I just can't resist that dog.

 

[stirder]

not to be a buzz kill but...if you HAVE to convince yourself there is a reason to get a husky, you probably shouldnt get one. it doesnt meet some of your criteria, such as protective/watchdog, and able to walk off leash.

 

[wolfdoggy]

I know. It's like seeing a big fat cheeseburger when on a diet. I guess Im settled on the Shepherd.

 

[BigDog2191]

Well, don't get a dog you don't like. Get a dog encyclopedia or go to a book store and look through it. There are so many breeds out there and there's definitely one for you.
