I can't believe I forgot to include my roomie's dog in my list of favorite breeds! She has the cutest little dachshund. He's longhaired and has reddish-brown hair. He's very well-behaved and sweet!

Bump. I love boxers. I have a niece and a nephew that are boxers - Sam and Bailey. They always look like they're smiling.

Bichon Frises will always be my favorite (because I can love on them and not get all allergic), but my friend & sister Pam has the most beautiful Samoyeds! She & her husband train them for agility, and they've both ribboned!
Sammies are the all white huskies, or the larger Spitz's:

They're known as the "laughing dogs". I keep telling Buffy (my mother's Bichon) that, if he grows biggers, he'll look like Icee & Crystal! Oh, and they get along so well with cats, too!

This is one of Buffy's puppies:
This is a Samoyed puppy:
Don't they look alike?

I think this is called belaboring the point...
This is "JR" (Just Right), THE Champion Bichon Frise. They didn't post the BEST photo - when JR won, he jumped right into the trophy, and peeked out soooo cute!
The Eukanuba Show, Best In Show
The Westminster, Best In Show
I'm not wild about the show cut, though - Buffy's is more of a puppy cut. JR's son won the Bichon Frise & Non-Sporting Classes at this year's Championship!
<--------- too into dog shows!!
ETA: I promise this is the last one (for now!)! This is when JR won the Westminster, one of his 98 BIS wins!

Schnauzers are sooooo great. They are very smart and great with kids! I love my salt and pepper Standard (Silver)!!
Here's a link to a photo gallery of the Standards (I am working late in the lab and don't have access to my comp's photo album!
 )

I looove terriers of all sorts.
This is my mom's carin terrier, Jolie, right after she got her about a year ago. She's grown a bit since then though, and gotten a little redder... I adore her, though she isn't much of a lap dog 
Does anyone like whippets? A friend of mine has one and I think they're so funny looking with their long pointy muzzles! The dog is so sweet though, and seems very docile.

I love all big dogs, and I can't seem to pick a favorite. So I've come to the decision that when I'm older and established, I'm going to have somewhat of a herd of big dogs.
Top of my list, because I've grown up around them, is the German Shepherd:
Next is the Newfoundland:
And the Great Pyrenees:

Nothing can beat a good ol' Mutt, though

A Puganese is a mutt.

I know, it's a crossbreed. They're so darn cute. I would never pay $800 for one, though. We got our Australian Cattle Dog from the Humane Society. She's gorgeous

My "child" is a VERY spoile English Bulldog. (He even sleeps under the covers with us.
I grew up with Saint Bernards.
Now my parents have mastiffs....The latest is Merlin. A 200+ pound dog who loves laps and gets bossed worund by Winston.
I'll post pictures soon!

I can't understand why people pay so much for mixed breed dogs.
I am all about rescue dogs, which are usually mutts. We have two: a Collie/Rottweiler mix and a Rhodesian Ridgeback/Boxer mix.

Me neither. Especially when you can usually find the exact same mix in an animal shelter and save a life instead of buying from a breeder.
I can't say I really have a favorite. Working in rescue and volunteering at the animal shelter I have come across so many cute cute dogs.
My 3 girls are a purebred Bichon (that we rescued!) She is 17 yrs old now:
A Border Terrier (possibly purebred) but she was rescued too and a Pit Bull mix who is my heart and soul. Here they are on the couch:
Here are a few more:
