my idea number of dogs I would say probably would be around three-four, but I don't know if I would be able to have four. Tyler says our limit is two. But I think I can slide it to three. So four might be pushing it a tad 
Two of those would be terriers. One would definitely be a Westie. Westies are my heart breed. The other would be another terrier. I have not decided what breed.
And I would like one large breed. A Mastiff. No other large breeds catch my fancy. Right now Tyler and I are very closely looking at the boerboel.
A Pit bull is in the future as well. I would love to rescue an older one and let him live his life being spoiled and loved.

I have p on copy most of the time, but my keyboard is also missing the number after 2 and the letter before Y in the alphabet. And I'm too lazy too keep on switching. ITs crazy how annoying it can get. You type a whole paragraph, and then realize you misspelled every word in it
My ideal number of dogs is probably two. I can make three work - we have two dogs, and dog-sit at times - but it's so much nicer when it goes back to being just two.
HOWEVER, it would be very nice to have two of my OWN dogs, since Violet is my parents dog. I don't see myself moving out of here for quite some time though, so unless my parents cave, it'll just be Chloe and Violet for the next several years. I can see my parents letting me get another dog when Violet is older and calmer, though. So we'll see.
When I have my own place though, I want two dogs. Maybe a foster at times. I want several cats, though.

WHAAAAAT???? WHAAAAATTTTTTT????
Why?
Why?
Too short, too loud, too much hair.
Too short = for me, it's such a hassle to fine-tune obedience when the dog is literally 3" off the ground. It's aggravating. Revy is a dream dog, but she's so **** short that I have to break position to tell whether or not she's sitting tight... or even sitting at all.
Too loud = I think my ears chronically bleed... which wouldn't be bad, except they bark at the worst possible times. When something super stressful is going on, the dobes are intuitive enough to sense it and they keep quiet... but the corgis just run around and go BARKBARKBARKBARK THIS IS FUN BARK BARKBARK!
Too much hair = it really, really doesn't bother me. But I'd be lying if I said I'll miss the hair. It's just not wash'n'wear enough for me. I want a dog that I can take swimming, but will be clean and dry by the time we get back to the car. Besides, fleas love corgi hair. **** fleas...
That, and recent events with Ada really make me leery of getting another corgi. If I could be assured that all future corgis would be like Revy, I'd stick with corgis. But the risk of ending up with a dog like Ada again isn't a risk I'm too enthusiastic about taking.
Too short = they're not short, they're FUN SIZED!
Too loud = You mean you DIDN'T want to hear about ALL the things?
Too much hair = well.....I don't have much to say on this front. The hair is far from my favorite part of corgis, but I can deal with it
Ryan has said that he would prefer future dogs not to be on the bed because of hair, which I can totally understand because after 2 days my bed starts to look like Falkor from The NeverEnding Story if I don't have the comforter always made up
Plus nothing spoils a romantic mood like pausing to rid yourself of corgi hair :rofl1:
I know I will have another corgi at some point, whether it is the next dog or not still remains to be seen. I DO NOT want to end up with another corgi with Frodo's temperament, but I feel like I can avoid it if I am super selective.

Honestly, I have no idea. Since working in a grooming shop and getting to know more breeds hands-on, I've started really liking certain breeds I never thought I would, and I've also been turned off by others that I thought I would like.
I do know that 2 dogs is my ideal number (three or four is good also, but I really do quite like two), and as long as one of those dogs is a Toller, I'm happy. Ideally the other dog in my perfect pack of two would be something larger, but I have nothing specific in mind. It changes on a day to day basis. Sometimes I can't imagine life without a Doberman, other times I think I want another Rottweiler, other times I want to get straight out of my bubble and get a Leonberger, sometimes I just want to adopt a big mutt, sometimes I want a Belgian Shepherd, etc. I have no idea what my next non-Toller will be. I like so many different breeds, but since I have no plans to add to my pack any time in the near future, I haven't given it too much thought.
