I'm pretty torn in this matter. I like big fluffy dogs because they're adorable! But I think it's hard to take care of them. I also like small dogs but not something as small as a chihuahua because I'd rather have a cat than that - small dogs like a beagle look cute :P Fluffy dogs like a well-taken-cared Siberian Husky would look handsome as well.

I have had dogs of all shapes and sizes and I have loved each and every one of them. My only criterea for dogs is that they are friendly, or at least nice if they are not in a friendly mood.

cool! Which dogs would you say are the most "moody" then?


myLot reputation of 59/100. MonkOVision (936)  4 years ago

I have never determined that by breed. Each dog has its own personality. I've seen big and small dogs be moody.

They all have their own way of doing things -- just little idiosyncrasies that make them unique and a lot of fun as well.

I usually prefer big dogs. I don't like little dogs because I find so many of them yappy and mean. I like some small breeds especially terriers. I like big dogs because of how friendly they are and how they like to play fetch and other fun games. I have two big dogs in my house now and I love both of their personalities.

I'm not really a dog fan really, but i have to say that if i was going to have a dog, i'd really rather have a medium sized dog then a little one, or a giant scary one. . maybe like a golden or black lab type dog. or a sheltie

I am also torn on this one. I have 2 of each at the moment and love them all. But I would have to say that my little papillons are my favorite. The big dogs can guard me better but I really enjoy cuddling up with my little dogs. Papillons are a little bit bigger than a chihuahua but not by much. And they have lots more fur than them.

I like all dogs, i prefer large dogs, which so far in my life i had large and small. Fluffy dogs i agree need to be groomed daily, which if you have the time, they are beautiful dogs, or if you could afford to take them to a pet salon saves you time, but costs money. I have a shepherd/husky mix, he is beautiful, i comb him daily which does not take long at all, and he loves to be combed. i had poodles which there hair had to be cut, to me that was time consuming for me.

I have always been a fan of medium to larger dogs. I do, however, like some small dogs (like poms and papillons). I guess I prefer bigger dogs because it's easier to horse around with them and you can usually play a little rougher whereas with a small dog, they are easier to step on haha. Smaller dogs are more cat-like to me-- and if I wanted a cat-like creature, I'd get a cat! They are also much better suited to be your lap dog. However, don't tell that to a big dog--they still try to climb into your lap!! I think big dogs tend to be easier to train as well (of course this is breed specific as some larger dogs are stubborn as all get-out haha). I also just have a few favorite breeds and they all tend to be bigger (and energetic haha)--the smallest breed I really like is the corgi, and they're just big dogs with tiny legs. I also want to have a jogging partner and I think you can usually run for longer distances with a bigger dog.

Moochie is a small dog. Among all dogs we've had in years, he is the only one manageable enough to render putting him on a leash useless. Plus he doesn't occupy much space at home. Taking him for a bath is pretty easy too! Bigger dogs means bigger maintenance. Bath, food, etc.

I don't agree with buying dogs for the 'looks'. I own two German Shepherds because of their intelligence, their loyalty and their happy, friendly temperament. I definitely prefer bigger dogs.

They require a lot of grooming and brushing, as do many dogs, but ALL dogs require love, affection, discipline and lots of training.

There is nothing worse that owners of small dogs who let them do whatever they want because they're small. All dogs still need to be properly trained so they're well-behaved and not ruining everything you own just because they look cute.
