I've got a 2 1/2 yr old beagle - he is deffo a babe magnet!
When we move to somewhere with more space we will no doubt get another to keep Finn company (there is only so much rolling about you can do)
He is great - with structured training we have been able to ditch the lead!
I wanted Wimeramers, and the Mrs wanted Westies...
She won.
Had German Shepherds for almost 20 years and also a Border Collie. After my last shepherd had to be put down (injured spinal cord), we got 2 Labradoodles (cross between lab and standard poodles) and I will have nothing else going forward. Great disposition (from Lab side), very smart (from both sides) AND they don't shed.
Staffords
1/ Heinz 57
2/ Newfoundland
3/ Huntaway
Another Border Terrier fan here. We'll hopefully be getting our second one this year 
1)Heinz 57/rescue dog. Shes a half boxer and we think other half parsons terrier. Very cute little face, daft as they get and only listens when it suits her.
2)Labradors, both me and the missus wanted one(or two!) originally, but we saw Maddy and had to get her. Would love to get one as a friend for Maddy.
3)Labrador.
1. Alsation or mongrel
2. Alsation or mongrel or rescue greyhound
3. See 1 or 2
Having said that...... I always liked big dogs until we looked after weetabix. She was great. This is her....
Oh for gods sake you guys have me in tears here ....we lost our boxer a year ago and seeing all those wonderful little faces just makes me miss him even more 
So I guess my answers are..
1. Bruno
2. Bruno
3. Bruno!
Essel, that's a Cavalier King Charles Crabhound, surely?
one that cr*ps in its owners garden and not on the trail 
Boxer,Boxer,Boxer
Would have to be
1. My Boston Terrier aka Fugs
[/img]
2. My Chihuahua aka chew
[/img]
3. French Bulldog
Fugs is cool! 
I love Staffies but we fell in love with JD when looking for a rescue dog . . . whippet/staffie cross . . .
The day we met . . .
and with papadirt's football . . .

What are Ridgebacks like for temperament?
Very much a family orentated dog,loves being part of the family.When they get to about 18 months of age they change from being daft puppy to becoming quite "aloof" with strangers.But once the stranger has been introduced as a friend,he is welcomed with open arms(or should that be paws :P)There not a gaurd dog like a doberman,german shepherd ect.More a non-confrontational guardian,who will only use agression as a last resort.
A good example of this was when my wife was out with him and a jogger came running towards her.Rogue(the dog)who was off the lead at the time came running back and stood directly in front of my wife and never took his eyes of the runner until he was out of sight,at which point carried on as nothing had happend.
Was once walking a Ridgeback for my mum's friend in a large park in Leeds , a group of lads came walking past and on purpose one shoulder barged me. Now I'm not a small bloke but I'm no trouble maker either so just tutted and gave him a mucky look then walked off , the guy went for me and the dog (afrika) went mental I'm glad she was on the leash .
They're very protective of their companions.lol , the guy must've sh@ himself
always wanted a irish wolf hound but sadly dont have the space. i ve got this little girl instead. proper heinz 57 , mum was choc lab , dad was bit poodle bit bearded collie bit springer. dont know what that makes her but i wouldnt be with out her.
My two collies, Meg and Sally
Spanish Water Dog Marley, runs full dreadlocks if not clipped, lot of fun.
I've looked at all the dogs and decided mine is the best.
and she agrees too
cheers lads, I had an Irish Water Spaniel for years, great dog.
Was hoping that's what you'd say about the ridgeback
posted before but hey ho:
& not wanting halloween to come round anytime soon:
1. Border Collie when I was a kid, brilliant dog. Now got Jim an ex racer
2. Loadsa greyhounds
3/ Maybe 1 more Greyhound.
(hope i got the questions in the right order)
dad was bit poodle bit bearded collie bit springer
Had a bearded collie/springer in the surgery the other day, was apparently beardy + springer mental. Does the poodle in it calm it down a bit?
here's my charlie boy
he's the 2nd rough collie i've had, and they are superb dogs. smart, athletic, kind and rather handsome. like a border collie, but less mental (i've had border collies in the past and think they're great dogs, but they're slightly crazy).
1 Dogs I have owned: longdog and dobermann (both rescue)
2 Dogs I would like to own: any rescue, but I would like a Wolfhound or a Weimaraner
3 Dogs if space/money were no object: hundreds of rescue dogs (and rescue donkeys and rescue ducks)
1. Boxers
2. Would like a Bernese mountain dog but couldn't be arsed with the grooming tbh.
3. We're getting a Bobtail Boxer next (although I've always had a soft spot for Rotties)
Kobe (now re-homed) Ozzy and Chyna.
Chyna (10yrs)
Oz (6yrs)
Cheers
Paul.
Forgot the dogs owned bit, short list mind.
Border Collie
Border Terriers
Labradors
We got out first Border T when they were still very much a dog only in this area and not really heard of, now there's millions of them.
(1) husky
(2) husky
(3) husky
Meet Zeus and Sierra - Sierra sadly left us to go to husky heaven a few months ago
1. Never been lucky enough to own a dog.
2. Would love a Lurcher:
3. But might possibly end up with one of these:
Lancashire heeler.
Fella who lives near me has a pup, see him occaisionally when out on the bike - I'd never heard of them before, but he's a bit of an evangelist.
beagles
bloody beagles
****ing beagles
this dog is the bane of my life but i/we love her to bits.
dougal - she ( fudge ) is 2 yrs old now and has just about stopped being a puppy. she`s got quite a mild temperament .although she is always ready to play and has to have at least one scatty fit a day , which normally entails 3/4 high speed laps of the dinning room table.i think either the lab or the poodle bit helped.
At present:
1x old yellow lab.
1x Tri colour Cardigan Corgi X-ed with a Collie.
Both rescue.
What I want next: whatever dog I next collect from the RSPCA - it just won't be a small, yappy thing.
Westie
Irish Terrier
Pics of my IT Muprphy who died not that long ago, suddenly aged 4, superb dog to take on XC rides.
