I have three dogs. Two Yorkie/Poodle mixes, and a Japanese Chin. The mixes are the most awful dogs I've ever had. They have the nastiest hair, they smell, stupid as shit. One of them will eat his own shit if you don't keep an eye on the little fucker. Sometimes he'll gobble it down, before you can notice. Then, later that night you get a shit smelling burp in your face. Christ, I hate those dogs.
I think I have wrong standards of dog sizes. Saw somebody walking their dogs in the city and my group commented on how huge they were. Their backs are only at peoples knee level that is medium at best.

my collies seem big, but it's all fluff. they're so skinny when they're wet! (and can squeeze through surprisingly small gaps in fences to my occasional dismay)
Most of the fun breeds are mediums except those crazy awesome small dogs like Corgis.

Medium dogs are awesome. Herding dogs are awesome. Pick any medium+herding dog and you'll have a great family pet as well as a fun dog to do all kinds of dog sports, outdoor activities, and will help protect your home.
Just do need leave kickballs in the yard when you let them out though. They will heard it around the yard, and if the kickball doesn't quite listen or gives the dog some lip there will be a bit of nipping to move it along.
Then you get this and a sad kid who now expects you to buy him a new kickball.
I never owned any pets. My dad grew up on a farm and my mom had all the pets, plus, my sister was terrified of dogs. So, no pets at all. Cats and dogs like me, but no pets. Until late last year, after I turned 30. I fiancee, girlfriend at the time, had an awesome border collie/blue heeler mix. Sweet, goofy, playful, quiet, intelligent and scrappy, Heidi is like the dog primer on how awesome dogs can be.
So, about 5 months later, I started thinking about getting a dog. I wanted a Corgi, obviously, because they're the best. But, ultimately, I wanted a herd dog. Smart and tough and loyal, no yappy lap dogs for me. And, eventually, we found one! Originally named Jolly, Malcolm Shepherd Wrex (Mal for everyday, non joking use) is a border collie basset hound mix. He's kinda like a big Corgi, cause of stumpy legs, or a huge dachshund, cause of longness. And stumpy legs. He's a lazy motherfucker who loves food and people, doesn't really like or give a fuck about other dogs (except for Heidi, who is friends with all creatures great and small) and doesn't really do doggy things, like fetch or chase balls or make noises. Because he's lazy and prefers to lay down on any blanket in the immediate area.
So, here are dumb pictures of my dumb dog.
He never stays still for photos, but this is one of the best I've done.
Look at the stumpy little legs!
He's still TERRIFIED of thunder, what a pussy.
Mal riding home from the adoption agency, when he was still called Jolly. Shoulda been named Lazy.
Ever watchful, he sits on my porch plotting DOOM.
Ever watchful, he wants to be petted while I work.
Ever watchful...WHAT THE FUCK AM I TALKING ABOUT?! You are so lazy, you lazy, scampery bastard.
He's pretty cool and I'm glad I rescued him, if only for the way he prances around with his bandezee on like a little, gay, cowboy. Lord, does he prance.
Medium Dave on

I'll trade you. My blue heeler wants to play fetch, tug of war, or chase 24/7. If not he will bark to remind you he wants to play, or chew on anything to pass the time. He's lucky he's cute.

That's why they call working, herding, and sport breeds shadow dogs. If they're bonded to you and view you as pack leader, they will be 2 feet up your ass at all possible times. Granted that loyalty is a great trait for many other things, but not so much when you're trying to drop a deuce at 2am and the dog is trying to nuzzle up under your nutsack to protect you from potential predators in the house.

Nutsack predators are the WORST predators.
I've only recently started letting him out of cage during the night and when I'm at work. It is a little creepy to wake up and see his doggy face staring at mine, as he sits on the floor next to the bed.

The awkwardest boner.
Until you actually have to give your dog the proper handle signal or voice command for stand up and go over there so you can wipe in peace, you haven't lived. Granted he does it with precision, but it's awkward to click and treat at that moment.
You know, I don't really have a problem with the dog in the bathroom while I'm doing my business. He tends to be all, "Hey, you're doing something!" and then wander away. Now, sex in the same room as the dogs...that's fucking weird. Especially when the one decides that it's a good time to clean his paws. Loudly.

pretty sure it's not his paws he's licking
also
he's just trying to give you some advice
Jesus, you'd think, but no. He cleans his paws like a goddamn cat. He bats his paws while flipped on his side or back to get your attention like a cat. If not for the fact that he's so excited for attention and to see you when you get home, I'd swear he was a dog shaped cat.
Also, there's no need to give me THAT advice. I know what's up.

My Chin is awesome though. He likes to sleep.
A lot.
He also likes bones.
I want something big and fluffy and derpy (and affectionate).
You could get a polar bear dog.
You should get a Leonberger.

Here he is meeting an American Akita.

This dog had better fucking be named Falkor.

Well, Mouse is technically based on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caucasian_Shepherd_Dog
but Leonbergers tend have much much gentler temperments.

I can't go downstairs to use the bathroom without her hounding me all the way from the steps to the bathroom door, and back again.
She even has a special ball she only picks up for me to throw.

we've taken to calling dogs "fluffs"
as in "I saw this massive fluff take a poop in the middle of the street today."

I can't have one
it actually really hurts
but I'll never let him come into the bathroom with me
that's just too awkward.
but I'm not good with animals
this is me
His ears are floppy and so is his tongue and he likes bones because they taste like food.
pretty sure it's not his paws he's licking

Maybe it's a huge ass Maine Coon and it literally busts down the door
