I love ALL dogs. I'm serious. I think some are assholes, and some are obnoxious, and so forth..but I really can't say I don't love them. I've worked in boarding kennels and other various dog-oriented places and it gives you a huge appreciation for all dogs. Alright...well that pair of labs likes to poop everywhere, smear it, and swim in their water buckets...but you let them out and they dive in the pool and they roar around and throw toys at you and are SO happy. Or that peekachiapompomdoodlewhadadingdong tries to nail you when it comes in...and then you take it where it is quiet and sit down and it crawls in your lap to love on you. Just because that dog isn't great in that situation doesn't mean it's not a good dog and not worthy of 'being'. Nor should you look down on someone that has chosen to own that dog..you can't possibly know the whole situation.
