 Wow, You're a Golden Retriever!
Golden Retriever
The Charmer
Laid-back, sociable and well-groomed, you've got your own hip little pack of groupies who just love to be around you. You have a brain inside that adorable little head of yours, though you use it mostly to organize your hectic social calendar. You never poop out at parties, and since you're popular with ladies and men, as well as children and adults, you dish out your wit, charm and luck to whomever is close enough to bask in it. The top dog likes you and wants to be your best friend, despite the fact that he doesn't really know what the heck you do. No one does, in fact, but everyone loves you all the same. A true foodie, you’ve got your keen ears fine-tuned to make sure you don't miss out on the opening of a trendy new place to nosh. But your youthful days of being able to wolf down food 24-7 are wagging behind you, meaning you've got to watch what you eat so you don’t pull a Brando and outgrow your coats.

It is one of my absolute most favorite breeds and I always have wanted one. I just love Goldens and always feel they are totally "me"! IP: Logged |

 Wow, You're a Border Collie! Border Collie The Achiever You've heard about this "second-place ribbon" thing, but really don’t ever plan on getting one. Not a chance. Highly competitive, you keep one eye on the Best in Show prize and one on the rest of the pack, making sure you're always at least one paw ahead. You love your family and enjoy the company you keep, but you'd trade all of them in a heartbeat for a corner office and some meaty stock options. When you're not licking your professional coat, naked skydiving and triathlons keep you entertained. You idolize the top dog and will do so until you sniff out a way to take over the company and do a little "restructuring." Learn more says»

:
Considered the world’s best sheepherder, Border Collies originated on the Scottish/English border in Northumberland, derived from a mixture of Spaniel and early droving breeds. While no one knows for sure how long they’ve been around, some experts say English sheepdogs have been tending herds since the Romans landed in Britain. Their keen intelligence and adaptability has made them a top choice for narcotics and bomb detection, not to mention guiding the blind and assisting the handicapped.

Border Collies are the most intelligent!!! If I had a ranch I would get one in an instant. I would only get one if I worked at home on my ranch, though, as they need a LOT of excercise, the most out of any breed.  IP: Logged |

 Wow, You're a Bulldog!
Bulldog
The Comedian
You may look like the troublemaker of the pack, but it turns out your tough guy mug is worse than its bite. You're really a softie, loyal to your friends and family and A-OK with meeting new pooches, but you prefer to do so with a high-five instead of a paw-shake. Proud of your great sense of humor, you've got a whole litter of jokes you draw from to keep the mood playful and the positive energy alive. A perfect afternoon for you involves a leisurely stroll with a pal, followed by a little downtime in an easy chair with a frosty can of brew and a remote control within easy fetching distance. You shed accusations of being lazy, knowing perfectly well that you're kenneling the energy you might need for... well... something.

whoops - my thoughts on the test
i'm not really a huge fan of small dogs. i like larger dogs - however, the past 2-3 years, i've grown to like the small dogs. out of all of them - i do like chihuahuas and yorkies and the little daschunds but not those shitzus and all of them, i don't care for those. ummmmmm - i like the test by the way. thanks a bunch! i like the description a lot - it's funny because i'm working with a family member this year - hoping to get an event planning thing going so.......it's pretty, right on.

lol, oops!! Here's goes ..Likely Professions: Racecare Driver .... while it isn't my profession, it is a hobby of mind. So thats rather fitting i'd say. I am a NASCAR Fanatic! While most is rather fitting i have to disagree with the comedian aspect. I am FAR from comedian. I can't pull off good jokes or pranks. I'm not a good liar and to be a prankster you have to be able to lie, for the moment. lol. Laziness ... when the time call for it thats about how I kick it. relaxing for the most part.
I did mean to comment on the Quiz as well. I loved the Question regarding what song is likely to be playing on my iPawd rover and rover again That one made me chuckle.

Wow, You're a Labrador Retriever!
Labrador Retriever The Caretaker Your family is what makes you tick, and you never "flea" from an opportunity to hang out with the whole gang. A family picnic complete with hot dogs, deviled eggs and a refreshing swim in the lake is hard for you to stray from. Your sparky temperament and dogged intelligence mean you are not only a blast to hang out with, but great to work with as well. Your close pals appreciate your patience and forgiveness, knowing you'd rather let sleeping dogs lie than dwell on the mishaps of the past. Your dashing good looks may one day lead to a modelling career, if only you can tame the unfortunate clumsiness that sometimes causes you to go flailing from the catwalk.
