If you didn't have a Doodle...what kind of dog would you have?

[Adina P]

I'm curious...what type of dog would you have gotten if you didn't get a doodle? Or are there other pure breeds you love?

Me? Well...I love athletic short hair breeds like Weimaraners and Pointers. I have also recently been interested in smooth coated Collies and love the big dorky mellow Great Danes. Belgian Malinois are kinda neat looking. And some English Mastiffs are just adorable. Oh and one day I think it would be fun to have a sighthound like a Saluki or Borzoi. Love St. Bernard's but don't ever want the drool. Finally...if I could guarantee I'd get one with a perfect temperament I think I'd like a pit bull. I love how athletic they look and their drive when it is harnessed for good. But I'm still a little afraid of them...

How about you?

I had a beautiful German Short Hair Pointer, named Pork Chop. I've always loved their sleek look, but Pork Chop needed help to maintain it. She was a canine vacuum cleaner for food. She had a habit of grabbing food off the counter. Unfortunately she passed away in February. I still love the breed though, they are a hyper dog. Obedience training was the only solution. They do shed, kept finding short little hairs on dark clothinging. I would get another, but I've fallen in love with Doodles. Can't see looking for anything else.

Boston Terriers are a favorite of mine and I always wanted a Great Dane even that I think are very hard to train bc they are stuborn.

Okay, this week-end we met with friends I haven't seen in years and they have an Irish Setter. He was beautiful, sweet, and gental. I fell in love so.........if I didn't have a Doodle I would have an Irish Setter, a breed I had forgotten about. :)
