My vote goes to: Golden Retriever

They are perfect hunting/retriever dog, but can also be great family dog. Their characteristics are "kind, friendly and confident".

[warning]might not be SFW, some nudity, awww alert.

English Mastiff, hands down. Just look at my avatar for goodness sake. Who doesn't love a 180 pound lugnut?

Golden retrievers are good dogs, but they're very high energy so can get into trouble around the house if they don't get to run around outside enough. I like German Shepherds: very loyal, intelligent, and not as hyper as a golden.

Domtri33: that's a great pic, but I have to say that 180 lbs isn't so much a dog as a small horse.

He/she is kinda cute, raabend, although there is a bit of a resemblance to the Taco Bell dog...

English Bulldog and its really not even close. This will be one of the first things I purchase when I'm finally done with school. Naming him Winston after Churchill (sort of cliche, but I've wanted to do it since I was like 10, yes that makes me a dork for knowing Winston Churchill when I was ten).

Hands down Cavalier King Charles Spaniels have to be the most loving and supportive dogs during stressful times. You can't get mad out with one of those next to you. Its impossible:

I owned different breeds of dogs before. I had labrador, rottweiler, saint bernard and a chihuahua. But among these dogs, my favorite is the chihuahua simply because I can carry him for long wherever I go. It is also easy to teach and have my Pet Medications.
