I don't really have a favorite breed of dog because I've owned and known spectacular dogs of several different breeds, including GSD, Springer Spaniel, Golden Retriever, and Beagle.

The GSD was interesting in that two coworkers owned littermates. One was the smartest dog I had ever known. He was just a wonderful dog all around, big, beautiful, and friendly. The other, a female, was stupid, snappish, ugly, and hyper. I don't know if it was environment or genetics, but they were very, very different dogs.

My ex had Boston Terriers when we met and I really did not like them at all.

I reject your reality and substitute my own.
