    Along the same lines as Brimway's earlier post, lock both your 'significant other' & your dog in the boot for an hour & see which one is happier to see you when you open it!!

    I like dogs.

    His dad is Dogue de Bordeaux (French Mastif) and his mum is Boxer. He is a gorgeous boy, as gentle as a lamb, even with Buddy, the toy poodle.

    I've always had a cat or two around the house all my life less the last 4/5 years.

    They're great entertainment when they're young and very loyal once they're older.

    I've currently got a (don't laugh, parents choice) Cavoodle called Harvey who's now 6 years old.

    He's such a character, and loves going for drives in the gti.

    The only other dog was Benson, an Alaskan Malumute, when I was younger.

    That bloke was huge.

    I've got to say I'm an avid dog person (not half person half dog, but a supporter of dogs)

    Had a black lab when I was little and she was pretty amazing.

    A mate had two of these, one left...very nice dogs...and 65kgs of dog at that.

    The Irish Wolfhound.


    I agree with medium to big being best, I have a brown lab on my shopping list, but Collies, and the rest are great too.

    I live next to a dog walking "hotspot" (people drive here to walk their dogs) & I find 95% of people pick up after their dog. The situation is much improved over what it was 5-10 years back - I assume because dogs aren't allowed to roam these days & a good education / peer pressure program to pick up after your dog. (I've taken plastic bags down to the local dog off leash area & tied them to the fence & have offered palstic bags to people that have conveniently "forgotten" to bring their own.)

    Then again, you're in Sutho, where I grew up & still have many connections & a lazier more arrogant bunch of dog owners I have never come across since, so there's probably a lot of truth in what you say.

    my sisters would have gone spastic if they'd seen benson - they love huskies/ malamutes.

    here's mine, gizzy (formally called gizmo, but he responds to gizzy), turning 4 this year, apparently he's a larger breed purebred pomeranian:



    he's my family's first ever pet - when we were kids, we were moving around way too much to have a pet. the teenage years (him constantly being a disobedient little isht every single day, completely disloyal, biting peoples toes every time they sat on the sofa etc) were tricky, but he's over that now, and very much a part of the family.

    he scares a lot of people off, too, so jehovah's witnesses, door to door salespeople etc are never an issue - gizzy's got the most aggressive, snarly, dirty-brawler bark i've ever heard - far more than my uncles' big brutish things (philipino men like big ugly crossbred dogs, for "security", apparently).

    just gotta go snowboarding with him one day - that'll have to be overseas somewhere.

    I like both but have a 15 yo cat. He's the best cat I've ever known.
    My neighbours have 5 dogs (4 small yappie things and a big bugger), they bark so much, its like living next to a kennel.
    If I was to have a dog, i'd want a blue cattle dog but just don't have the size yard that they need
