Dogs!

Well first off I'm sure there is a pet thread here somewhere, and honestly I couldn't give two you know whats either. Considering the vast number of different dogs out there, they are clearly a pet that deserves their own thread. Now if you try to make a thread titled "Cats!" or "Geckos!" because I made this topic, you're just not going to get any dice. So don't do anything stupid.

Anyway this thread is about man's best friend, dogs. Talk about dogs, wether you're getting any, post pictures if you want.

Now getting to business. I live out in the country on my own. I rent and basically have my own house. Most of the time, I'm alone. So I'm saving up for a dog. I want a good gaurd dog. Two of them. So if a stanger walks in, his ass is grass. I want a good guard dog that's good with kids (When sisters come to visit) and one that's big. I hate little dogs. In fact I want to be able to feed my dog dachunds. Yipping little pricks. I also don't want a dog that's going to shed all over the place. Aaaand. I want a dog that can chill inside. Something that doesn't have to be exercised so damn much to where I have a heart attack either.

Now out a few hundred dog breeds, that actually kinda narrows it down. So, the top choice are great danes. I told you I like big dogs. Two badass pitch black great danes. Yeah. Except is there anyone here who has one? I don't really trust breeder sites tbh. Any suggestions for a good dog would be much appreciated. =]

So what kind of pooches do y'all have?
 
You're asking for a magical dog. Big dogs need to be exercised a lot.

German Shepherds, Rottweilers, or Doberman Pinschers are pretty good.



I own a Labrador currently, but I used to own those I mentioned above and some more.

WOO FIRST POST!! DAMN IT SUICUNE!!

Anyways, good timing. My dog had a litter about a couple of months ago, and they just started going to new homes... We still have two that need a good home...

If anyone wants a Male, Purebred, Golden Labrador, PM me. xD And Ethan, I have one that will be huge, but he's kinda... lazy. xD Although, if you offer him food he'll do anything. xD

My fav breed though is a Shiba Inu. They just look so damn cute. xD
 
I used to have a dog name Lucy, she was a cute Beagle that came over my house one day.

We bought her off these people for $50, I loved her to death then one day someone stole her and the same people who sold her told us moved so yeah :(
 
Well I know they need to be exercised a lot, I just don't want a dog that's gonna be all hyperactive little yipper just because I forgot to walk him one day. A dog that knows the difference between outside and inside would be awesome. I like Rottweilers a lot, German sheperds shed too much, and dobermans are fugly.

Still leaning towards great danes...

Bulldog, my cousin had one and all it did was lay around, it would walk when you yelled for it.

PLus their little faces are sooo cute.......Now I feel Gay >_>
 
We're actually thinking about getting a dog. Unfortunately we can't get anything too big, as we live in a fairly small apartment with no real roaming space outside. We went to the pet store today and saw loads of adorable pups.

My favorite small breeds are Shiba and Akita Inu, Pembroke Welsh Corgi, Pug, Shih Tzu, and Pomeranian if you keep their hair trimmed.

As far as helping you Ethan, I'd suggest going around to your local adoption centers or pounds and grabbing one from there. Much better than supporting those awful places that sell pups who are forced to live in terrible conditions. /soapbox

Rottweilers are really awesome, I loved mine to death. You have to train them do those things, so starting at puppyhood would be really great. Mine wasn't violent, but he scared the crap out of people whenever they got to close to our property.
 
My grandma used to have a German Shepherd, creatively named Shep. He was an excellent dog. ^_^

Ethan, there's a lady about a block from my house who owns a Dane. They go for walks in the evening, and you would swear she was walking a reindeer.
 
I lack knowledge of dogs. I don't know what signs do they make when they want something, I don't really know how to train them, and I couldn't tell the difference between a German Sheperd and a Border Collie!

And yet, I've been owning a dog-- actually TWO dogs, for almost a year, and it took me one dog-obsessed friend of mine to figure out one of my dog's breed. It was a husky-Labrador mix. Strangely enough, I've heard that huskies like to run a lot, yet my dog is a very lazy one, sleeping on the kitchen floor most of the time.
 
Daschunds.

(Personally, I prefer Miniature Wire-Haired).

They also make excellent guard-dogs when trained well, regardless of their size. They're somewhere in the Top Ten Guard Dogs to own.

They're small, don't shed (I think the long hairs do) and really, it depends on the personality whether they're yappy or not. They're not really hyper, but they're adorable and managable.

:)
 
Great Danes only really work as a deterrent if you're looking for a guard dog, they're very gentle.
I currently have an English Springer Spaniel, which is not a dog for people who cant devote enough time to tire them our. Border Collies and Newfoundlands are the coolest dogs in the world.
For a guard dog I would lean towards rotties, though you should certainly read up if they're first time dogs. Media perception and bad owners have resulted in people being terrified of them which is good in a guard dog. But they still need an owner that's consistent and knowledgeable. Oh, and the coolest guard dog in the world is the miniature schnauzer.
 
I love keeshonds, their like big polmeranians! They're really good with kids, their fluffy and cute. But believe me, there are a lot of ugly keeshonds too.
 
These are my dogs! Sooo cute aren't they!
