I'm a fan of BIG dogs- Newfies, Bernese Mountain dogs, St. Bernards, Irish wolfhounds, wolf hybrids. I am drawn to all the giant breeds. As I get older, I still love those breeds, but I don't love the orthopedic problems and short life spans that go with them. Consequently, I have found myself getting smaller and smaller dogs with each new dog we get. I will never own a small dog, but I don't think I'll get another giant either.
yeah same here...hoping that my berner border mix has a longer lifespan than pure berner. Miss my rottie so much she was awesome. But I havent ever had what I'd call a BIG dog. lol. some day some day.
