I did not know that was a thing and any connection was by accident. lol

I too love them all but my favourites are shepherd dogs, specifically . Great companions, super intelligent, and some of the most beautiful animals on the planet. I also have a massive soft spot for Bull terriers because the are the cutest and funniest dogs in existence.

I know you said you loved them all, but do you have any breeds that lead the pack? (Pun absolutely intended)

Nah, I've had doggy friends in various breeds and mutts over the years. I had a Great Pyrenees named Thistle, super friendly, and enthusiastic. Worked as a livestock protector, brave and faithful. But couldn't understand the danger posed by the road in front of his farm, and thus was his lift ended, all too soon.

I am sorry to hear that, thistle sounds like they were a good pupper. I've lost one too many to the ignorance of roads myself and it is never fun.

Thanks, I appreciate the sympathy. And as a result ALL Great Pyrenese are wonderful beasts in my estimation. It's funny how a breed can become so lovable once I've developed a relationship with member of that breed.
