I desperately want a dog, but my mum is against it cos, "You'll grow attactched to it and it'll just die." And cos of the responsibility that comes along with it. But I know I can handle the responsibility and everything. German Shepards are my favorite, but I also love beagles, blood hounds, Italian greyhounds, and quite a few other breeds.
I have a purebred mongrel named Taylor, oddly enough. He looks a cross between a border collie and a chow? Who knows... I had him in the car in a Wal-Mart parking lot, and a little kid walked by with his dad. He pointed at the car and said, (w/ really country accent) "Look Diddy, it's a WEREWOLF!" So, that shows you how attractive this dog is..:-)
(I tried to put his pic in my profile, but I couldn't get it to work for whatever reason.)
