You're right. When my wife met my dogs, I just became a passenger in the relationship.Originally Posted by RFS62

beb.
Funny enough, when I was in college I was in the same boat you are in now. I wanted to get a dog, and I wanted to get a bulldog. I got some books at the school library and went to a bulldog breeder and talked to them. I found out what everyone in here has told you in about 12 posts - they are really expensive to take care of. I didn't end up getting the dog because of the costs involved. I spent that money on a wide screen TV.
As far as house dogs go, I think one of the better breeds for that are Boston Terriers. They are sooo cool. They kind of look like miniature bulldogs, but they are funny, funny dogs. My roommate in college had one and his name was Dudley. One of the best dogs I've ever known. Loyal, happy go lucky, funny, loving, and he had no problems sitting around all day waiting for us to come home. You might want to look into those and do a little more research on them if you're interested. I would advise talking to a breeder about the breed as well. They know a lot about the dogs and are a good resource.

Chicks would dig the Boston Terrier as well. I know my roommate got a lot of attention when he walked him around campus. It's not some huge dog (lab, rottweiler, boxer) that some girls would be afraid of. Girls will think you're secure in your manhood if you're walking one of these little guys around.

Those dogs look like 1/2 dachshund, 1/2 Puffy.

Welsh Corgi!!!
Pugs are cool as well.
Aren't English Springer Spaniels supposed to be the smartest (if you can measure such things) breed?

Smartest? Nah, they get picked off base too much.
Makes all the routine posts.
But they have very high fielding percentages!

As cool as they are, I never was a fan of purebred dogs. The sheer amount of inbreeding and overbreedings with a number of lines have caused so many genetic problems that these dogs just become too sick and expensive for some people to properly care for. Mutts, on the other hand, tend to have less problems and are much cheaper. Plus, they give the same amount of love!
Also, I've noticed that dachshund mixes tend to get the most attention from women. I have no idea why, but those dogs do almost as good of a job as adorable children when it comes to getting the, "AWWWW!!!!!" response from women.
I guess i could always get one when Im older and have the money to spend on a breed such as an English Bulldog
Other Breeds Id be interested in/like are:
Bullmastiff
Newfoundland (parents own 1)
American Bulldog
THE University of Cincinnati
