I can't believe the amount of people that have over looked pugs in the toy category lol

I guess you can tell when someone hasn't owned one :)

There are heaps of people here who could say the same about their own chosen breed, everybody thinks their own breed is the best and that anybody who doesn't like them mustn't know them. Sorry but not so. People just like what they like :shrug:

Don't be upset that pugs didn't make too many lists, I personally wouldn't own any of the smaller breeds because if I want something to trip over, I have cats. Cats seem to be more rubbery when you catapult them down the hallway with a misplaced step in the dark. Toys and other small dogs are just too little and delicate for me and I'm afraid of hurting them in a moment of clumsiness. Doesn't mean I don't like other people's though. :)

Yeah I agree - for example I like dogs on the lean tall pointy short coated side and my lists reflect that, with a few fluffy exceptions. I don't like braccy breeds (the noises freak me out :o among other things, just not suitable for what I do with my dogs) but I understand that other people can't get enough of them.

There are lots of people who can't even name one terrier that they like but it doesn't bother me, I understand they are not for everyone.

It would be boring if everybody liked the same thing, particularly with dog breeds where there are so many different types.
