Best dog breed?

[papi89]

you guys are severely underestimating the strength of a silverback gorilla

I owned a pit and 2 boxers once...my pit LOVED me, and my family, would've gladly taken a bullet for us..but she did not like the other dogs we had (the boxers). She at times wanted to attack and maul them, and there were a few spats. The reason she didn't ever kill them and ended up tolerating them was out of respect for me and my family. But she never liked them.

If I were to own ONE dog, I would definitely have a pit. But based on my experience I won't keep a pit with other dogs in my pack/home.

Only drawback to pits. Awesome dogs who dig people, playing, eating and sleeping but other living things generally don't set their world on fire. They're very well bred and very specifically bred, and kept responsibly away from sudden introductions to other animals they're absolutely amazing dogs. Will not stop playing, great for guys very much a man's dog.

The other day i saw 3 dogs that looklike like wolfs someone told that were Czechoslovakian Wolfdog, before that i didn't know about this breed

There are a few "wolf dogs" the closest you will get is a Saarloos then possibly the Utanagan but they are all come from slinging a SGD in with a wolf and then sorting out the litter from there.

If you're asking for the best overall best breed of dog then it depends on your lifestyle and reasons for getting the dog.

All dogs are adaptable but it boils down to what extent they get to full fill their natural instincts that determines how satisfied and amenable they become.

I have had GSD's and I wouldn't hesitate to get another but I would ensure I really put the leg work into researching the lines. I love my two collies to bits and it is a pleasure working with them but for me personally, the Saluki cannot be matched by any other dog. I have never laughed r enjoyed being around a dog as much as I did when I had my saluki x whippet. A real eye opener to the breed and the more I looked into them and learned about them the more I fell in love with them.

I already know the dogs I want when I go "off grid" and the GSD is the chosen day to day one so I'll opt for that from your list. Their herding and livestock instinct is a beautiful thing to watch and witness (collies you are just controlling the hunt and eliminating the bite) plus they cover the base for alerting and warning. I would love to utilise a Leonberger but that and the GSD would bring up conflicting traits.

Easily bullterriers GOAT dogs

Stubborn af and silly antics for days, they're fun af compared to the average boring submissive dog



Srs the only pet I'd consider getting, anything else gets boring after a week

Labrador retriever, Golden retriever and German shepherd are top tier puppers. All three are smart and loyal puppers if you raise them well. Just make sure you have your Labrador or Shepherd interact with strangers and other puppers from an early age otherwise it will be vicious phuck which perceives all strangers as threats and tears everything and everyone its unfamiliar with, to shreds. Owners who neglect their puppers, who do not take it for walks and do not train it, rustle my jimmies especially if they are Retrievers or Shephards which require some extra effort in raising them due to their size and temperament. OP become a good owner for your pupper and it will be a forever loyal and grateful pupper.

Pitbull breh checking in. Love my lil buddy and wouldn't trade him for any other dog. The neighborhood kids flock to my place on the weekend to take him for a walk

Really depends on you and your lifestyle.

You guys should check out the Shiloh Shepherd master race. like larger, healthier germans.




Shiloh ------------------------------- German

Da fuq ... Literally looks like one of those "before cell tech - after cell tech pics" ..... Mirin Shiloh Shepard. Ovarcharka's / caucasian shepard or w/e its called is probably the most intimidating though.

Here's my buddy

^ Beautiful dog, love the bully smile.... definitely more Am Pit than anything else I'd say. Looks extremely athletic, energetic as well?

Cool thing about Bullys is they come in all shapes, sizes, and activity levels.

Thanks. Yep, he's a brindle APBT.

And yeah, he's pretty damn athletic. He gets to play with my neighbor's saluki all the time, so he gets that sprinting time in. Incredibly friendly, an not just with people he knows. He's happy to be greeted by any stranger, even if it was in my house and i wasn't there (chitty guard dog...)

Had a golden retriever years ago. Now French Bulldog. Awesome dog so far

I personally want a Samoyed, so let's go with Samoyed

[YellowOnYellow]

No beagle no care.

[CheekyChris23]

I am a huge fan of pointers: German Shorthaired Pointer, Weimaraner, French Pointer (owned one), Hungarian Vizsla (owned one too), etc.

Very athletic, handsome, and intelligent dogs.

[TheJunkMan81]

no boxer on poll.fail.

[CodyZellery]

All the puppers posted itt are beautiful.

Have a malamute, would never own a husky crew.

Because?

Have generally ruled out big fluffy dogs because I used to live in a hot climate. Not so much now.

[Crash49]

English Staffordshire Bull Terrier, loyal, affectionate, great looking dogs, like a mini pitbull but not as prey driven

[shanedawg]

no ACD no care.


bye

the smartest dog ive ever owned, although quite stubborn but he listens like no other.

[StainlesSon]

German sheperd is THE dog

[katya422]

They are aesthetic, but a MAJOR handful. They need far more attention/exercise than most any other breed, will usually do anything they can to escape out of backyards, and if you live in close proximity to other people(apartments), can get you on bad terms, due to how loud they can be(howling/talking).


Malamutes are far easier to live with, super chill in comparison, and fine just lounging around as long as you walk them once a day. We live in Texas, and our Mal has no issues, though we keep our house under 76 degrees. She goes out sunbathing in the middle of the summer all the time.

However, she sheds out small dog sized piles of hair on the reg.

Hmm....

You aware of the Pomsky?



Wonder how that would work with a Malamute instead.

[Rayzor84]

Mutts srs. Less genetic health issues to deal with, best of several breeds and usually have a very good demeanor.

[SicilianPower]

I like all sorts of dogs, I really think muts make the best companion pets. They seem to have more personality and they seem to be more intelligent. I really like Basset Hounds and Beagles also.

I love them. I want to collect every shape and size, and every morph like the pythons and boas.
