Well you see dogs like Huskys,Belgian Malinois,Cane Corsos,Akitas,Dogo Argentinos etc are rare to find.

Huskies and Malinois are common here.
Ive never met a cane corso, akita or dogo argentink though

First time?

Huskys are a dog id love to have but i know how they can be. Some friends have one.

Same here. A beautiful dog but very vocal and they really need to be working long and hard. I read that Game of Thrones created a huge uptick in demand and now they are the most 'dumped' dog in the UK. Very sad.

They are gorgeous!
A dream dog for sure, i know i could deal with the vocalization and the work drive. But im not ready for another dog quite yet.

I didnt know that, thats sad.

All of those I've met, except for a malinois. Possibly akita too. Cani Corsi are a popular breed here

Akita's are amazing. A young woman I see on my walks has one .. she says it has been very easy to train.

Interesting. If I remember correctly, the dogs they used in GOT didn't have any (or had very low) husky percentage. But I guess it looks similar-ish, so it was enough to fuel demand

Cane Corsos are not common here.

Must be nice to be in the US, dogs are more at wide over there. Here it's $4,000+ for any Pure Malinois , luckily my cousin(is looking after two Rotties and a Malinois) and a close friend just happen to have Malinois and we are going to breed them and I will be keeping a female.

Yeah, it seems like in the US its very easy to find herding breeds (especially high drive, "police" breeds). Here it's mostly molossoids that rule the roost, and toy dogs. Cani Corsi, Dogos Argentinos, even a few Presa Canarios. We do not have many pibbles, but they are a thing, amd then of course a ton of molossoid LGDs and LGD mixes

Sounds like a lot of large breeds!
Id love to meet a Cane Corso in real life, they sound like amazing dogs
Here there are many more labs than anything
