Which dog are you?

A chow chow, short, fat and very hairy! Known as the Fluffy Lion-Dog, suits me, being a Leo.

A bearded collie. A bit daft, doesn't care if the fur hair is out of place, fidgety, likes the beach, hates the rain, happy to curl up on a comfy rug, hates fireworks, smiles a lot.?

A scruffy mongrel, likes to be loved, tries to please everyone and doesn't like being the centre of attention.
I just need a warm house, food, long walks and an occasional pat on the head ?

We've had retired greyhounds alea - one at a time.
I'd have to a be a setter or any working breed.

A Bichon Frise. Happy little dogs, small enough not to get in the way but best of all making people smile.

A pug dog. Little and round, and just a little bit quirky.

Which dog am I? A cat. Sorry!

In my younger days a springer spaniel, into everything, happy and eats anything! Now, a cat, eats, sleeps and only does anything when I want to!

I had a little westie. I think we shared some characteristics. If my hair isn't brushed I look like an old mop . We were both on the short side. If I'm excited or upset I run round yapping. I can be fun but a bit snappy if upset. I'd defend my home and family to my last breath.

I'd see myself as a border terrier, but I don't have that much energy anymore!

Now I see ariadne as a calm and sensible Golden Retriever, Anniebach you have to be a Welsh Terrier, and Galen a wise and stately Great Dane.
Phoenix, ever enthusiastic and optimistic is an English Setter, while Soop is a poodle with a chic and wonderful topknot!
<Ducks back into doghouse> ?

I think I'm like my late, much loved Rhodesian Ridgeback - Protective, a bit over enthusiastic, food loving and the first one on the sofa when the fire's lit.

A Bernese Mountain Dog, large, good with kids, love my food and family , dont care much for exercise, love the water ! :-) Great question

On the theme of people looking like their dogs, has anybody else noticed that the vicar's husband on Gogglebox looks exactly like their dog - well, it's face that is! ( We often get treated to a good view of it's nether regions.)

I'm one of the cats. Don't mind my own company and like to be stroked every so often.

I am also a cat I think. Would love to sleep a lot- food appearing without any effort, cuddles when I want them, nobody would mind if I retired upstairs for a few hours and then joined the company again when or if I wanted. No responsibilities and also enjoy my own company.

hmmm your own ideas will be 'interesting' perhaps?

I love almost all dogs and always find these sort of questions like 'what's your favourite bird, flower, etc' just impossible to respond too.

I said almost because I can't stand yap yap toy dogs, especially those carried everywhere and that wear 'clothes' (don't mind a proper dog coat agains the cold). I prefer larger dogs, but now I am older, will probably go for a medium size dog like a middle size Schnauzer - as long as it is hugely intelligent.

But which dog are you?
A Pyrenean mountain dog, a St Bernard with a barrel of brandy under your chin, a Dogue de Bordeaux?? ?

Neither- I am a real person ;)

But if I have to be a dog. I'd definitely be a mongrel- pedigree dogs too often have personality disorders and think they are better than others ;)

The point of the thread is "which breed of dog *would you be*" , not your favourite and unless you have exceedingly nimble paws, I think I had realised you are a person.
(So, of course, is my dog)

I like to be well groomed,I dont like wind,rain,cold, heat,dirt,mud ,mess or running around activities,I like to to curl up and be petted and bought tit bits(dosent happen mind you),I can be aloof,and can "do" disdain quite easily.....once upon a time I thought Labrador but the older I get I am going to have to be a handbag type albeit a hefty one one and I dont yap but do have an impressive growl,but my bark is worse than my bite..... OH I always say he is a Jack Russell small wiry runs around a terrier with something he wont let go of...

You sound very like a (retired) greyhound, downtoearth. They are wimps don't like wind, rain, mud, cold, too much exercise, mess or running around .
A comfy billet with a sofa and a fire as well as lots of cuddles just about fits the bill.

I don't like going out in the wet weather, but I enjoy fine weather walks. I often rush around in crazy circles but sometimes go into a trance and do nothing. I am good tempered if people are kind to me and a bit funny looking. I am a bull terrier!
