I was just wondering if I am crazy or if anyone else has experienced this?
Do you ever meet breeds in person that you think sound like a great fit for you only to decide... They're really not a good fit? Or the opposite where you have zero interest in a breed until you meet several?
One for me is tollers. On paper they sound perfect (honestly they are one of the bet sounding breeds for me) for me but in real life I just don't get the same feeling. I like them still but I just can't see myself ever owning one. I can't even put my finger on why they don't quite fit. At first I thought it was just the one I've met but I've since then met several and none were really my kind of dog. Bummer. I wonder if I'm just really not a retriever person.
On the opposite end I've LOVED all the card is I've met. Never been a breed I'd consider and still not likely to own one. But they're just fun dogs. And another lately has been pumis. Not a breed I care for the look of much but I really really like the ones I've met. Very neat dogs.
