So which breed is your favorite and why??

I like the siberian husky and the german sheperd. The sibes because they make awsome sled dogs and they have very human like facial expressions and wonderful personalities. The German Sheperd because they are very loyal, and kind, and they also have wonderful personalities.   :D

Pembroke Corgi and Belgian Tervuren. Corgis because of their spunk and attitude, Tervs for their grace and versatility. Both are extremely intelligent and active without being crazy, which I like.

Well, not really a breed, but I like herding mixes because they're so smart and athletic.  Also they're easy to find in shelters, because apparently they can be a little too smart and athletic for the average pet owner.  And mine isn't a purebred border collie, so he's not quite as ball/frisbee-obsessed as his brother Chopper (bless his crazy little heart).

 

A couple of breeds that I would like to try working with in the future are greyhounds and pitties, mainly because they're both really athletic and there's a lot of them.  It might be a bit of a task to find a greyhound that is active enough for me, though, because apparently most of them are quite lazy (although, I'm kind of lazy too, so maybe that would be a good thing? lol)

Australian Shepherds & Border Collies. why? because they're intelligent, versatile, energetic, ready-for-anything, and though they're medium sized dogs, they're generally quite light weight, which is nice for loading into the car, putting up on the grooming table, or any other situation that requires carrying/lifting the dog.

Generic Iowa-ized Alaskan Husky sled dog. Why? Its cause it is what I have. :) What is a Iowa-ized sled dog? They look like Alaskans, act like Alaskans, but they have the strange love of all things corn. I really am not making this up. My dogs love to eat corn. Ah, one of the many eccentricities that I love about them.

Hahaha, Megan that is hilarious... we just discovered that Harriet likes to eat veggies, too - it's rather odd.  And I know of a rough collie in flyball who runs for carrots... but all personal bias aside, I think the corn-eating dogs from Iowa win :tongue:

Yes, pretty much I have found they all love corn. When the puppies were well, puppies, I would let them run loose in the mornings, and it was the same time of year as they were harvesting the fields. First thing every pup would do is run over to the spilt piles of corn and gobble it all up. I would try and lure them away, but they would all run back too it. :lol:

There is a few other eccentric things about them, Dakota loves Altoids mints, and Gremlin is bananas about bananas (and carrots)

Aurora likes taco sauce and Ranger will eat bird seed. Again, some of the many eccentricities that I love about them.

all four of my dogs absolutely love fruit. three of them love veggies too, except for Luca but he's just a brat. my Aussie and one of my Cocker Spaniels absolutely adore potatoes. They don't care if it's the skins, raw or boiled. They're completely nutty for potatoes.

I obviously prefer Siberian Huskies over other breeds - but I also prefer Border Collies, German Shepherds, and Retrievers. :D I've owned all of these breeds and love their personalities and characteristics.

Hahaha Ellie is bananas about bananas too only she likes the peel the best. She usually dosen't eat it but she loves to chew on it and fling it all over the place. Today I was eating a banana when i was in the dog yard and I gave the peel to Ellie and she took it and did a death shake with it and it flew out of her mouth, behind her and she looked up and was like " where did it go?" it was so funny.  :D

Haha, our old husky Sadie used to be obsessed with mints, too (and trust me, that was a good thing - she needed them!)  It extended to anything mint flavored, really - it even got to the point where she would even sit next to us while we brushed our teeth and beg for toothpaste... now that was weird  :roll:
