    My uncle had several dogs. Each had it's own personality and some were a bit nutty. His last dog is hardly what you would call a guard dog. His bark was bigger than his bite and when like bugs were around he'd growl at them, haha.

              Personally, I prefer bigger dogs. Huskies are beautiful, but I would never get a purebred dog; there are countless mutts in need of a loving home, so I'm not really in favour of breeding.

                Dalia, It depends on your lifestyle and what you are looking for from a dog. It really depends on the dog. No two dogs are alike. As an example, I have worked with German shepherds who just weren't very smart. And this is a breed of acute intelligence.
                Huskies are gorgeous, but have very high energy. Not sure if they are the best If you live in the city. They require lots of exercise due to their high level energy (iirc, huskies could walk for a week without food/water) and have a mind of their own; very stubborn. Not recommended for first time owners. Some info here
                They also 'talk' a lot (not bark, but howl etc). Due to their independent nature, they are not watchdogs.

                i took my friends dog for a walk yesterday shes got a jack russell terrier, hes pretty small but the most excitable dog in the world. his bark is bigger than his bite and himself three times over! wasnt that easy to take care of him.

                Jackies are craaazy. Be preprared to do jumping jacks along with them.

                Small dogs yap too much for my taste.

                  Not a fan of small dogs either.

                  Rotties and Great Danes are more my thing. Also like German Boxers.

                    I love Great Danes. Many years ago, when I just started university, I was doing an internship in an advertising agency and they had one of those. Walking him every morning was part of my duties, lol.

                      Yeah, they're like mini-horses. And so gentle too.

                        Well, if you got the time, get many dogs and get any size you want, but living in the city means sacrifice.
                        My grandfather had a dog and when I wanted to take him for a walk, they all looked at me like i'm from Saturn or something.
                        Dogs are free in the village.

                        Anyway, stick with a tank fish, ;D
                        Peace.

                            Ahhh kill it! Kill it!! I hate it when their tails pop off, I have nightmares about lizards!

                            I read somewhere that dogs will compete for being the leader of the pack which they consider the family, and if the owner/etc is meek, they're essentially not going to be respected. Rather get a cat, who occasionally looks your direction but leaves you be to sun in the sun the rest of the time. No walks, no fetch, no slobber, no baths, no barks. Bliss.

                              Exactly.

                              My cat would try to drive me insane when he wanted attention and I had no time for him. I would sit at the computer and try to work, and he would run through the apartment screaming, scratching the Persian carpet and so on. So, no, cats aren't only decorative and cuddly. ;D

                                Mine are both Maine Coon's. Excellent breed, huge like a small dog, very silky soft fur, good with kids and best of all...quiet companions. They'll follow you around sometimes, they want to sit in the same vicinity etc but don't ask for attention. Quiet voices too, can never hear them unless it's time for dinner or they've spotted a bird and start trilling...awesome mousers as well as a bonus.

                                  100% true. It's for the good of the family. A survival instinct. A weak leader cannot be respected/trusted. Only the strong survive. That being said, once the human becomes a good leader, they will respect, be loyal to him/her 'till death.
                                  I prefer dogs because I actually 'get' their logic. Plus, they've taught me a lot about the universal language of energy that we all speak fluently, consciously or subconsciously. Further, they make such wonderful companions. Every dog owner will swear that their dog has the personality to die for.

                                          Dogs and humans sort of evolved together. There was something on some learning channel with the difference between domesticated dogs and wild ones.
