There are alot of great dogs in my breed. Some I can think of just off the top of my head would be.......
Fieldstone McCloud (took 5th in the simi-finals at Nationals!)
Fieldstone Tweed
Fieldstone Rook
Fieldstone Bess

Also, StillHope Kate seems like a wonderful girl.

I'm sure theres many more, but these are just some of my personal favorites.

My personal favorite APBT, next to my own of course.

persephone totally does it for me.

[Jean Luc Picardy]

Here's the epitome of the Blue Picardy Spaniel in form and function.

One of my personal favorites is Cando.

You can't get a better head piece than that. Nice rounded ears, amazing fringing, refined muzzle, rounded head.... and to top it off, he's a sable!

(the only bad part is we were showing against that!)

Also love this dog- http://www.papillonclub.org/History/BIS-034-WingssongAndTheCrowdRoared.html

Also, UFO - http://www.papillonclub.org/History/BIS-009-BannahydesUFO-of-Beechwood.html

I am a big fan of Dermot who is the top winning pug of all time. He is also the uncle to my puppies (sire's side.)

Scroll down (he's the pug on the Showsight magazine that says Dermot in the bottom corner)

For the Akita Inu, I don't have a picture of him but Google Hachiko. Here's his statue...

For the Pharaoh, see my thread. The picture of Oberon shows possibly the most amazing dog I've ever seen. As far as bitches go, my foster Gaia was perfect.

The best Border Collie in the world, hands down:

lol.

But aside from my girl (who I really think is going to be a superb dog) I'm extremely fond of her dam, Kate, who embodies nearly all I want to see in a working dog.

I'm still lookig at different lines myself. Was reading about a breeder down south with s kelpie stud last night, just researching it now. He also does herding workshops and assists people in training. So far I don't know about health testing and havn't seen any of the dogs work but still interesting

 

[Rosefern]

Well, for me, it has to be Ruger...he's currently #1 in the states...and his progeny is amazing...

And his brother's not bad, either...Mojave finished AKC at 10 months:

My favorite of all time would have to be Ch. Dictator v Glenhugel, even though he was from the 1940s...

And his son, Ch. Damasyn The Solitaire CDX... too bad this isn't my favorite photo of him...

I'd really have to think pretty hard to name my "favorite" modern day Doberman... other than my own dogs, of course! I find it's easier to admire the dogs of old - it's hard to offend people when your favorite dog in the breed has been dead for nearly 50 years!

Edited to add... here's one of my sentimental favorite modern dogs - he's a good dog, not as long as this photo looks, with an amazing temperament. He's also the dog that was offered to me that I *turned down* because taking him would have meant Ronin would have had to have gone elsewhere... and there was no way I was going to let THAT happen! Introducing Ranger, the dog that could have been mine - Group Winning Ch. Bruda Ranger of the Night. I raised him when he was a puppy, I showed him for the first time, imagine that!

Here he is, when he was still a baby...

Wow, look at the head on the first dobe. Impressive. They seem to be a lot shorter-bodied than the dobes of today.

 

[SizzleDog]

Outline, that's one of the reasons I like Dictator... he reminds me a lot of Ronin in the face. They have different heads, but the expression and muzzle length are the same.

Dictator and Ronin
