What's wrong with me? I was watching Dogs 101 last night and they were showcasing the Doberman, the Whippet, the Miniature Pinscher, the Irish Setter and the West Highland White Terrier. After watching the Doberman, I thought to myself, "I want another Doberman." (of course, their health issues have made me steer clear of that idea for a while)
Then I watched the Whippet, how he runs and how his anatomy makes him run like lightening... beautiful to see. Then how he can be so relaxed and docile in the house. (I like that) So, then I thought to myself, "Oooooooo I want a Whippet." (of course, hounds have never been my thing....the no off leash rule would drive me nuts)
Then onto the Miniature Pinscher....that adorable and pretty hackney gait they have. Such pretty little terriers...lively and smart. The one on the show was a therapy dog...wonderful. So, then I thought out loud, "Oh! *gasp* I want a Min Pin."
The Irish Setter was beautiful to watch run and that fur! There's hardly anything prettier. But sooooo much energy, I don't think I could keep up with that dog. But I imagined myself walking across a big field, watching this flowing coated beauty having a great time zooming across the tall grass. They are such good natured dogs.
And the little Westie was adorable looking, but also a typical, feisty little worker and probably not that easy to train. (something I look for in a breed)
Does anyone else do this? You admire dogs and think maybe that's the dog for you? :lol-sign: When it comes right down to it and I'm not watching one of those shows, I become more sane and have just one or two breeds that I would consider. But turn on the tv and I'm in love with all of them.
