Gee, I have the only Cocker Spaniel.

Great bird dogs.

[Richard Kimball]

Has anyone noted WHY they bite yet?

[I still care]

OK, everyone else is boasting, I have to boast too. I love my Shepherd, but the best dog I ever owned by far, was my Sheltie "Watson".

His main pleasure in life was following me around all the time waiting for me to tell him to "do something' so he could do it.

I don't have a picture of him on the web, but I have found a picture of his grandpa (who was one of the great Shelties), and Watson was just as beautiful

[Mr. Mojo]

I like Coonhounds ....of the Redbone variety.

Golden Retriever bump!!!

I have always been the type of person cats and dogs like. If a dog is agressive, can stand my ground and the dog will stop and not attack. My friends have three of the dogs listed and they attack the UPS man but just wag their tails when I come over.

[R. Scott]

My Pomeranian must not be aware of the list – he considers Pit bulls and Rottweilers to be his favorite foods. He actually took out a Rottweiler several years ago and tries to attack every Pit Bull he sees.
I always keep him on a leash.

If I didn't have dogs...

1) I could walk around safely barefoot in the dark;

2) My house could be carpeted instead of tiled and laminated;

3) All flat surfaces, clothing, furniture, and cars would be free of dog hair;

4) When the doorbell rang, it wouldn't sound like the SPCA kennels;

5) When the doorbell rang, I could get to the door without wading thru four or five dog bodies who beat me there;

6) I could sit how I wanted to on the couch without taking into consideration where several little furbodies would need to get;

7) I would not have strange presents under my tree....like dog bones, stuffed animals and have to answer to people why I wrap them up;

8) I would not be on a first name basis with a vet;

9) Most used words in my vocabulary would not be: potty, outside, sit, down, come, no, and leave him/her ALONE;

10) My house would not be cordoned off into zones with baby gates;

11) My purse would not contain things like poop pick up bags and dog treats;

12) I would no longer have to spell the world B-A-L-L and F-R-I-S-B-E-E;

13) I would not buy weird things to stuff into "kongs", or have to explain why I'm buying them, or what a "kong" is;

14) I would not have as many leaves INSIDE my house as outside;

15) I would not look strangely at people who think having their ONE dog ties them down too much;

16) I would not have to answer the question why do I have so many dogs from people who will never have the joy in their life of knowing they are loved unconditionally by something as close to an angel as they will ever get. Who else has a friend who considers you the MOST important thing in the whole wide world all the time.

Yes my pit bull will bite you - do not come charging into my house - he will be hanging on your butt - that's why I love him.

When I was a wee lad my mom and dad taught me, if an animal is BIGGER or STRONGER than you it probably can hurt you very easily!

How interesting that the most dangerous dogs are all breeds that could weigh more and/or be stronger than than most humans!

I guess my mom and dad were right. Glad I listened to them instead of waiting all this time for the CDC's advice!

[Saundra Duffy]

I'm kind of surprised about German Shepherds. I thought they made great gentle pets . . . unless they are trained to be police dogs or something.

[cerberus]

My Cairn Terrier is the most vicious dog I have ever known. One day I got between her and her food bowl and she nearly tore my foot off.

Luckily I was wearing my wing tips at the time.

[Not A Snowbird]

My dearly departed miniature dachshund bit my ex-husband once. Frankly I considered that little misdeed a public service. (I warned him not to touch Bismark when he was growling!)

[ModernDayCato]

Pooh...kill!

BTW...Pit Bull is not a breed, but whatever. For anyone who is interested, Find the Pit Bull is enlightening as to how many other breeds get labeled as 'Pit Bulls.'

[TrueBeliever9]

Medical Doctors as in M.D.s kill 250,000 people a year! When is the CDC going to warn the public?

[SevenDaysInMay]

Take a dog for a wok.

Metrosexuals and plain stupid people should not have dogs. The dogs deserve better.

[ladyinred]

People should never chain up dogs in my most Betty White opinion. Nor would I ever own a pit bull.

[Joe Hadenuf]

The more people I meet, the more I like my dog.

[Barnacle]

I believe that morons have the right to own vicious dogs. I also believe that they should be held responsible for anything that animal does as if he had done it himself. And, that includes barking at someone.

Animals owning animals. Which owns which?

Ha ha ha. What a country!
