I have a Dachshund and I have to say...not to impressed. I miss big dogs. I do like pugs, but would never own one due to their wheezing. I really want a St. Bernard.
This is Elanor, she looks adorable but her personality sucks. I still love her though, I just wish she was bigger. She could win a dogshow if her feet weren't as fuzzy, it's her only flaw as far as breeding goes. She carries that ball everywhere and is always pushing it into my feet to play.

But I will be able to breath properly and regulate my body temperature. I will have no risk of spinal problems due to a screw tail, and I will never get infections in the folds of skin in my face. And my eyes are far back enough in my head to protect them from injuries.Lucem712 said:
Sorry to be a downer, but 60% of pugs in the UK are affected by hip dysplasia, and the population as a whole is so inbred that the current gene pool reflects only 50 ancestors. The breed needs radical change. And it should start by lengthening that muzzle.
Yeah, it's just sad because some pure breeds have a-lot of medical issues due to breeders inbreeding them :\OneCatch said:Yeah, it does seem a bit.... decadent, doesn't it?Lucem712 said:
I can understand people wanting a particular breed (doesn't bother me personally, but I can understand it), but I really don't like the smug obsession of some people [http://www.thekennelclub.org.uk/] with having a dog that's 7 generations pure breed or whatever. It causes so much harm, and it's really arrogant.
Once, I got into a shouting match with some ***** who claimed that I didn't have "Proper Dogs" and should apparently have taken them somewhere else to walk them (I was in a public park). Needless to say, I told her to fuck off.
That's a really nice looking dogLucem712 said:
Wow, really? What a snob. It's not like you were walkin' on her property or some gated community park haha.
Yeah, she's pretty awesome. She can always make me feel better after a rough day!
Don't like pugs, they look like they've had their faces smashed into a door.
My favourite breeds of dog:
Border terrier
Highland terrier

YOU TAKE THAT BACK GOOD SIRCrenelate said:Never trust a dog with orange eyebrows...Abedeus said:Need a big, healthy dog?Crenelate said:
Why not Rottweiler?
Not mine obviously, you need to pray to me and pay a lot to see my rottweiler.
Or pet her. Which is impossible over the Internet.
Those eyebrows are small cherries on a beautiful cake of a dog.
If you distrust dogs based on their eyebrows, you do NOT want to look at a Rottweiler's mandible. I'd post an image, but frankly I get scared when I look at my obedient dog's teeth. She's never, ever bared them at anyone or anything (even cats or other dogs) in anger. Still scary.

Don't fret, I actually quite like rottweilers. I think it's a joke Terry Pratchett made in his books, I always recall that saying when I think of them. I think it was Going Postal.Captcha: 'know your rights' - your rights to have an awesome dog!
I knew I have heard that phrase somewhere before - I blame having read only one Pratchett book in original English version...Crenelate said:Abedeus said:YOU TAKE THAT BACK GOOD SIRCrenelate said:Never trust a dog with orange eyebrows...Abedeus said:Need a big, healthy dog?Crenelate said:

But yeah, Lipwigers they were called? I think even on some of the illustrations of the book there are three big rottweiler-shaped dogs near Moist. Heh. Oh well, cheers.
