     Top Ten:

    1) Rough Collie- That's what Zeke is, and he is intelligent beyond belief and the best dog I have owned! Words cannot explain how great this breed is!

    2) Blue Heeler- Owned one as a young child and he was awesome! I still miss him!

    Boy, I am sure the list goes on these are just the main ones that I really like!

    Least Ten:

    1) Chinese Crested- Umm, As you can tell I like dogs with hair, this one does not.

    2) Pugs- My friend has one and all he does is snort and gag and has breathing issues.

    Or any dog that likes to drool ALL the time! Of course these dogs are still worthy of love, just not my type.

    5. Smooth Fox Terrorists (used to have them, wild and crazy guys)

    6. Borzoi ( hopefully we'll have one someday)

    7. Portuguse Water Dog ( used to show one, and if he was typical, my, what great personalities!)

    8. Scottish Deerhound (such handsome dogs)

    9. Airdale ( so dapper, and fun dispositions)

    10. Bernese Mt. Dog (a friend has one and she's a hoot)

    CAUTION!! The list above is subject to change at any time.

     

    Least liked breeds, but a really have met very few dogs I didn't like:

    1. American Cocker Spaniels ( in the '70s, almost every cocker I groomed was a serious biter, and they crapped in their crates)

    2. Shar Pei ( their coat makes me itch)

    3. Neapolitan Mastiff (too drooly and stinky for me)

    4. Bulldog (too weird looking, too many health issues)

    5. Chows (too much coat, they seem sullen to me)

    6. Spoiled rotten, out of control ego, toy dogs of any breed

    Funny, I really can't think of any other"breeds" I don't care for, and of the ones above, I've met some that are absolutly delightful.

    --I have met individuals of the following breeds that are great, however, my issue is with the breeds on a broader spectrum and based upon my experiences with the breeds as a whole.  Most of them I don't care for because they tend to be unpredictable or they seem to be neurotic, something I cannot deal with.
