What Breed of Dog are you?
I spend most of my time training Labradors and the occasional German Shepherd or Boxer. Last weekend, while competing in Rally Novice Team at Rose City Classic I saw ALL kinds of dog breeds. While I love my Labradors, it sure is fun to see what else is out there. It made me think what breed of dog would I be?
One time while on Facebook, I took a "test" to see what kind of dog I would be. My result was a German Shepherd. German Shepherds are described as self confident, fearless, willing to meet overtures, and my favorite breed. I took this as a complement.
Recently, I saw another "test" online to find out what breed of dog I was. This test said I was a Clumber Spaniel. A Clumber Spaniel is docile, sweet, intelligent and pleasant. No offense to Clumber Spaniels but I'm not sure that is the breed I am? I have never been called sweet or docile in my life. I am not so sure this test is right? Or maybe I am a mixed breed of German Shepherd and Clumber Spaniel...I wonder what that dog looks like? The second "test" is called Gone to the Dogs. Check it out, I know you want to! When you are on their home page click on games on the left then you will be prompted to take the test.
So, yes I train retrievers and for fun I compete in other dog activities too. And yes I took TWO tests to see what breed of dog I am, but don't say anything because I am sure that in the next five minutes you will know what dog breed you are too! :-)
