The rules don't say I have to vote for only one dog, so I'm voting for all of them. They are all the best doggos.

Man this is really tough because they all seem to be the greatest dogges, but if I am forced to pick one, I vote for that handsome fellow Tyler.

Every dog in this thread is a Good Dog, damnit. On the balance, I'm going to have to go with Odin. My first dogge was a collie mix, and she was the best dog ever, so I'm totally biased towards the loveable neurotic pups.

Liquid Communism posted:Every dog in this thread is a Good Dog, damnit. Collie? Guy wouldn't know majesty if it came up and bit him in the face! Collie x Kelpie sumperacy oh you want neuroses? I mean Lydia has her share (ball obsessed, seperation anxiety, penis envy, poop watching) but if you want neuroses, you gotta pick Guv! 9 months in a pet shop, every other puppy getting picked, just getting older and less cute as each day goes by. That'll gently caress you up! Hence the prozac. Literally. It's the same drug for dogs as humans. We weaned him off it and he came out of his shell so much. I mean, he's still insane, bed obsessed, barks at anything larger or smaller than him, takes an hour to get used to the same guests he's seen 100x before, pisses in his frisbee then picks it up and throws the urine on himself, sucks his bed in a way Linus would get jealous of and just generally stinks because anything that smells bad to us, smells like rolling time for him! He started going grey around the muzzle before he left the pet shop, thats how stressful it was. But who couldn't love the little guy? (he's having surgery this week. Even if you don't vote, please send up a little prayer to whatever god you do or don't believe in for Guv. He's precious)

The best thing I've ever run into in my life is having a good nap with a dog. When they start snoring you know you're in for a good snooze. I've never been a good sleeper but when you wake up in the middle of the night and all you can hear is a couple of canine chainsaws, you know there are no issues and you can just drop back off to sleep, anxiety be damned.

Ahri is what me and my friends refer to as, a "sick-rear end chill dog." She has no anxiety, she is just content to exist. and produce floof One time she ate my girlfriend's glasses because work got in the way of walks She does this thing where she grabs a gopher at the neck, swings its rear end end up in the air and then slams the gopher down breaking its neck instantly. This is the day we learned a harness is better than a collar for protecting the local wildlife. This is her favourite travel bed

These are all excellent puppers so my choice wasn't easy. I'm going with Edsel, because he reminds me of my dog Eddie and he has a car name.

Voting for Rascal the most photogenic dog in the world. I also had a bird named Rascal, he was an rear end in a top hat

All these boys and girls are indeed good, which makes it hard to choose just one, so I didn't. Voting Ahri, Ellie, Lydia and Badger.

My pup was, so far as I can tell, built entirely for running. She used to chase deer out on my family's farm for fun. Never hurt them, but she'd come back up to the house fifteen minutes later with her tongue around her knees, looking entirely too self-satisfied.

I have to shill some more for Ellie as she's the most amazing being that's ever walked this Earth. Shes incredible. When I get back to a PC I will post some more pictures. For now, here is her Instagram. http://www.instagram.com/littledumpsterpup Ellie facts: Despite being 10 lbs, she routinely bosses around full size horses. She sleeps in the bed under the covers to start with but then migrates to the pillows, sleeping with her head resting on your head. She does not beg, she demands things by stomping her feet and making grunting noises. If you ignore her. She taps you with her paw like she is poking you for attention.
