"They" say dog owners live longer.
I've met many neighbors walking my dog that I probably wouldn't have if I didn't walk the dog.

What happened when the absolutely stupidest  Kiwi in the whole country migrated to Australia?

Average IQ of both countries increased.   

  Entirely off topic.  But I do like a laugh 

So here's a joke about a dog  :

A dog, a sheep and a New Zealander were survivors of a terrible shipwreck.

They found themselves stranded on a desert island.  After being there a while they got into the habit of going to the beach every evening to watch the sun go down.

One particular evening, the sky was red with beautiful cirrus clouds, the breeze was warm and gentle; a perfect night for romance......  As they sat there.... the Kiwi began to find the sheep even more attractive than he'd previously noticed.

Soon, he leaned over to the sheep and put his arm around it.

But the dog got jealous, growling fiercely until the Kiwi took his arm from around the sheep.

After that, the three of them continued to enjoy the sunsets together, but there was no more cuddling.

Many months passed.  And whilst the Kiwi had the dog and the sheep as companions, he yearned for something... more.

One stormy night fate intervened....  There was another shipwreck!!

The only survivor was a beautiful young woman, the most beautiful woman the Kiwi had ever seen.

She was in a pretty bad way when they rescued her, and they slowly nursed her back to health.

When the young maiden was well enough, the Kiwi, the sheep and the dog introduced her to their evening beach sunset ritual.

It was another beautiful evening: red cirrus clouds, a warm and gentle breeze; perfect for a night of romance.

Pretty soon the New Zealander started to get 'those feelings' again. He fought them as long as he could, but he finally gave in and leaned over to the young woman, cautiously, and whispered in her ear...

'Would you mind taking the dog for a walk?'

my vote would be to get an Australian Cattle Dog....they are cute and hyper smart and have a great disposition and aren't that large....

Higher energy and do better if they have 'a job'. Working dogs like the aussies and Borders are working dogs - and though super smart don't always make the best house pet.

Because all those smarts turn into mischief if you don't keep them mentally stimulated and tired from lots of exercise.

The only other dogs I like are the Jindo and the Carolina Dog.  I think I'm pretty set on a Staffie though.

Darmah almost ate a schnauzer at the park yesterday, so that's another plus vote for Dobermans.

Carolina Dog..aka..American Dingo?!

Jindo?!  If you're going Korean 'tiz..get a Korean Mastiff!

That's a whole lot o' eating right there.

judging from the one in the pen just behind it   I would venture to guess that its viscous drool output is measured in quarts-per-hour
