I haven't owned a dog in more than 25yrs. The last one or two dogs I owned were shitheads. I think the last one was a black lab. That little fucker tore the hell outta our yard and I had to call the dog cops on him. I tried to get him to stop, but it didn't work out. So we parted company and he left me bitter.

Prior to that I owned a Collie and Samoyed. The Collie was my best friend, loved that dog. He ate come foil one time so I had to bottle feed him back to health. The Samoyed was a scandalous little shit, but we got along pretty good.

The only other pets I've had since then were Ferrets. Greatest little fuzzball pets ever imo. But I think this time I want a pet who will reciprocate a little love instead of drawing blood LOL.

I'm thinking house dog pretty much. One who will travel (in a car) well. Won't bark too much. Won't drop logs the size of a small tree all over the place. Easily trainable. Mild mannered. Won't shed carpets of hair everywhere. But most importantly one who will listen to all my problems and then lick my face when I'm done :D

Is there such an animal? And no, I don't like Taco Bell so that's out of the question.

Cocker Spaniel I hear are good all around dogs and do not get too big.

We love our dog, however, when he is done, I do not think we will replace him. With traveling so much and going out of town here or there, I feel it is easier to just get up and go and not have to worry about a dog sitter or whom is going to take care of him.

Lucy is a Brittany Spaniel. If you want a dog that does not shed you need to stay in the Poodle cross breeds, Maltese, and a few others. Either way get some professional training.

It's worth it

Oh BTW I am getting pressured for a new Doodle Puppy Should I get you one?

You have no idea. A friend showed me a video of this stalker cat (wish I could find the video). Guy filming the cat would hide behind a door and the cat would creep up on him. As soon as he poked his head from behind the door, the cat would freeze in its tracks. Pretty cool cat :D

Second vote for a Cowdog (Blue or Red Heeler). We lost the baby pic dog earlier this year (cancer), and our other Cowdog Hank (other pics) has seen better days....when he goes, it will be another Cowdog.

They are good with the horses, herd the cats in the house, and tolerate water well. Best of all, they are excellent travel companions. In fact, I found our last Cowdog sitting on a center median of a busy, major street. I stopped in traffic, opened the door, told him to jump in and up he came...and has been with us every since. We take him everywhere we go.

Those dogs are a hit and miss.. Some of them are great, others require too much attention.. And their yappy! I don't even know if you can call it a bark, sounds more like nagging.. Lol.

If it doesn't have a ridge (what I think you were going for) it's likely not a ridgeback mix as that is such a dominant feature. We had a lab ridgeback mix when I was a kid... pure white, all lab, but had the ridge. It worked though as we didn't have any lions in the neighborhood.

Her ridge is not there when not on alert but if she gets real agitated or on defense it stands up strong. She is very much a Shephard in most ways but her fur and some markings are very pit or ridge like.

My dog was named Simba (long before Lion King popularity) and her ridge was very pronounced at all times. Every time we'd take her out people would wonder what kind of surgery she'd had as it looked like a scar.

Smiling dogs are the best. Both of mine smile, unless they don't like you. My queensland died after 17 years, so I rescued a couple of Catahoula Leopard dogs... haven't seen any leopards in the neighborhood lately come to think of it. :smilies_mit_hut019:

Got the perfect dog for you! A Komondor, which are German sheep dogs. They grow the cords out and run them in with the sheep to protect them from predators. Really cool dogs and they'll clean the floor for you as they're like big mops.

You don't really want a dog.. You'll regret it.. They need more attention than women do.. And are more moody! Our dog wouldn't get up off the floor when Chris was home And I flew to Cali for not even two full days! Now, Chris is gone and I can't even get her outside to go to pee! She's so attached she actually gets depressed! And I thought put bulls were tough!

Heelers are great mid size sturdy dogs.
