    Deciding on dog breed

    It's too damn hard, seriously. I opened a Husky thread a while back cause it's the dog I've wanted pretty much my entire life. Akita's are amazing too.

    I've been reading up on Husky's though and the amount of hair they lose, how they refuse to listen to their boss a lot of times, are kind of a turn off. The hair not so much to me, that's an issue my gf has. But refusing to listen is something I don't like when it comes to safety for other people/dogs, etc.

    Do all dogs stink, by the way? I know some stink worse than others but but father in law has 2 dogs (no idea what breed) that get washed and trimmed a LOT but they still stink horribly.

    Can some of you throw around some tips? What breeds are really cool to get? I really don't like the standard dogs like golden retrievers, labs, etc. I'm sure they are fantastic dogs, but I don't want to own one.

    Cheers!

      if you have a tiny cock...you need a pitbull


      haha just fuckin around...seriously, my buddy had a husky before, great dog.
      it worked well as we would go there everyday after classes and go out with the dog and throw the ball for it....they need a lot of exercise.

        What if I have a huge cock with a sweet throbbing vane?



        See, a lot of people say you can't have your husky unleashed cause chances are it will run off on it's own as soon as he's distracted and his instinct takes over. Ofcourse there's exceptions but as a general rule that's what they say. That kinda sucks too..

            Rhodesian Ridgeback. Lot of personality. Energetic for the first couple of years but mellow out after that. They become low key but will play and expend a lot of energy if you want them too. They are versatile and are fine in any climate. The ridge on their back is very unique and very cool. They make good watch dogs and despite the trait of them being standoffish around people, they are very friendly but will protect you fiercely if need be. Give them a look.

            Good luck on your choice of breed. I know it can be a pain with so many to choose from.

              I like mutts. Check the dog-pound, sometimes death row doggies are the best pets.

                  Thanks man, looks awesome for sure. I have 0 knowledge about breeds so a lot of the choosing is very exiting.

                  I'm 23 and I'm planning to do long term world traveling in a few years. It would be great if I could take the dog with me. So I guess a dog that's good with a lot of change is also mandatory.

                    Dude, YES. I came across two in a zoo a few weeks back. They were amazing, seriously. But I do like a badass looking dog, dont ask me why, guess I'm shallow like that ;) That's why I love huskys too.

                    Here's the chow chows I saw at the zoo:

                      I'm a Golden Retriever man myself, but I'm fond of all big dogs. Whatever breed you choose, there is usually a local rescue organization specializing in it. Check them out first. Allot of people have had to give up their pets due to hard times lately.

                        Will definitely check out shelters

                        What about the smell question? Do all dogs stink or does that have to do with the length of their coat or something?

                          If you can find one of these then this is a great dog to get

                          If not pit bull ;)

                            I have three small, short-haired dogs and one large-ish long haired dog. None of them really stink unless they find something interesting to roll in.

                            But I'm used to the smell of dogs.
