Dogs

Dogman

You can probably see where my name and avatar come from. I've kept dogs ever since I got married and we are now on our 3rd. In general, I prefer dogs to people. Most are affectionate, a small number ignore me and an even smaller number show aggression. Nearly all dogs show their intentions and are much easier to "read" than people.

My dog will approach me and other family members for affection even when we've had a bad day.

A dog that I've never met before that is very affectionate can really cheer me up when I'm low and I see several local dogs while out walking mine.

  • Rotweillers- I know somebody with a Rotweiller. It came from a rescue( most Rotweillers,Staffies e.t.c. have a bad name, and all rescues really work on any behaviour issues, so the majority have a bad name because of the few owners that let them down). Any dog can have the pottential to be agressive-usually if they are in pain. Have any medical problem or haven't been trained. But apparantly, Rotweillers used to be used as therapy dogs and this one and i'm sure many more are the most affectionate,loyal, kind, non-judgemental dogs. They have the temperement of laboradours. I do understand how you may be frightend of some dogs, i had a very bad experience with a giant( it seemed giant, i was only small) Red Setter as a child-luckily i was only frightened of dogs up until i was a teenager)
