Does the breed of dog match your personality? The old saying seems to run true animals are like their owners...

I had a german shepherd when I was growing up and he was the smartest dog I ever saw. I miss him alot. His name was Rocky. So a german shephard is my favorite breed of dog. If I had to choose a 2nd favorite, it would be a siberian husky. they have cool eyes.

I have a farm collie I simply love to bits. I call him my puppy baby. He's probably as smart as a four year old child. You can see pictures of him at http://www.conation.info
I like mutts, alot, too, but as far as breeds go, ya gotta admire the Airedale Terrier. Strong, sturdy, and they've got heart like a lion. I had one that slipped into a whirlpool (as in, leading to a waterfall, not the kind you soak in), panicked, but then (when I started crying because I was sure she was lost) finally bulled her way out of it..I think she finally gathered the strength to save herself so that she could come "save" me. She was gentle and fierce all rolled into one, not too bright but ready to give her all for the asking.
I also had a half-airedale half-old english sheepdog that was the prettiest friendliest dog ever. He wasn't too bright either (I think this is the airedale part) but he was so enthusiastic about everything and how can you not love somebody who's always SOOO happy to see you?
While breeds tell you sometimes quite a bit about the genetic temperament and attributes of a dog, I think the owner has a huge influence on its personality. Dogs are incredibly good at picking up and then mirroring cues from their owner (the leader of the pack). Its like they have these invisible emotional antennae or something that picks up and amplifies their owner's feelings.

I love them all!!
I must say though that at the top of my list are German Shepherds, Rottweilers, Pit Bulls, St. Bernards, and Chihuahuas, and yes, I think my personality is a mix of these breeds :o)

Irish Setters - they are the most beautiful dogs there are and they match my hair color. I've also owned Siberian Huskies, also very beautiful but very energetic, temperamental and not for everyone!

For big dogs I love Boxers and for little dogs I love pugs ( the Pug however is not the easiest to train).
