re: What is the coolest looking dog breed?

Malinois, German Rottweilers, & Dobbermans have always been my favorites. My last 2 have been Rotts and we're planning on a Malinois once my old man makes it to dog heaven

What breed is this?

I like my Great Pyrenees but the coyotes don’t.

I am partial to the Rhodesian Ridgeback, when you hunt lions for a living everything else in life is cake.

This is the correct answer.

I think Dobermans are badass

Those look like some good boys and girls.

I absolutely love English Bulldogs, we’ve had two, but they just don’t live long enough

I got this boy a few months after I started having seizures when i was 19 and he got me through a lot.


Miss this girly too.

I love my boy! Second Rhodesian I’ve owned. Will own nothing else.

Well needless to say I think he's beautiful, and he's just so damn cool and sweet that many seem to comment on just how pretty he is. I try not to post in these threads, but the longer they go on the less I can resist.

How many of these dogs have you had? 90%+ of Americans don't have the physical capacity to exercise these dogs to any level the dogs require. I knew a marine that lived in my neighborhood that had one with a kink in the end of it's tail and it was 10+ miles a day run. Other than that they are beautiful dogs.

I am on my 7th, I had a single dog first and have had 3 litter mate dog and bitch pairs since then. To be in optimum shape they do need a lot of exercise. My wife and I are road cyclists so that doesn't work but this time of year we take them mountain biking and they can do 15-20 miles of single track without issue. Our ace in the hole is just over an acre of fenced backyard that is old-growth hardwoods with about a million squirrels living there. They spend all day chasing squirrels and when we get home they come in and curl up.

I also take them boar hunting a few times a year with my nephew's dogs. They make great open trail dogs and will find pigs when the hound pack won't because they cover so much ground but they will run you and your Dogos into the ground getting to the hogs if there aren't any close.


So like a lot of dogs they need a lot of exercise both physical and mental but our local squirrel population takes care of ours for us.

Pugs and Bulldogs!
