As the owner of three unique pups, I know that dogs’ variances are numerous. Any one who owns a dog knows that it has a mind of its own, and therefore a unique personality. Having had many dogs throughout my life, I have found that dogs fit into three classifications.
Annie dogs
As princesses of the canine universe, Annie type dogs have a loving yet manipulative personality. An Annie dog assumes the role of queen bee. As leader of the pack, she keeps everybody in line. She dominates all of the other dogs, often by physical herding or malicious growl. Tough the tough façade she has created does not accurately represent her entire personality. There is a bit of a diva atop Annie dogs’ fur, especially when anger causes the hairs of her back to stand on end. But, she is not all diva. To other members of the canine breed, Annie types seem rough and tough, but whenever a familiar human is thrown into the dynamic, Annie dogs know how to suck up. Immediately, rolling over and showing off the pink exposed skin of the belly. They loose their rough edges and show off the sweet puppy that still remains beneath the growling front. Annie dogs become the epitome of loyal, loving pets. Being the lightest sleeper’s in the canine world, Annie types will awake at any noise, exemplifying how they protect familiar humans from creepy and questionable humans. They always come when called, even if it means leaving the hot trail of a chipmunk or bunny rabbit. Annie dogs fulfill the loyal and protective branches of man’s best friend’s quality list.
Winnie dogs
Winnie type dogs exhibit fit, toned, athletic bodies, with strong structured faces, but all of the sophistication given off by this refined appearance goes out the window when the...

... dogs love you totally, and love to show it. The look a Lucy dog gives you could make anyone smile. The wet nose, the penetrating eyes, and the big erect ears melt even a frozen heart. Lucy dogs house eclectic traits, with many apparent problems (including medical problems, i.e. epilepsy and allergies, etc. and personality problems i.e. never stopping barking), but they are also sweethearts. Lucy dogs pick up the slack that Annies and Winnies have left behind when it comes to expected traits of man’s best friend. Lucy dogs are warm-hearted, loving creatures.
All dogs are unique, but they fit into categories. Every dog has traits that make them an Annie, a Lucy, or a Winnie. All types are good, but certain people fit better with certain types. A lover of animals, I like all dogs, no matter the type. Personalities make dogs fall into different categories.
They are very loyal and protective dogs. They are extremely intelligent and can learn both numerous and various tricks in a short and fast periods of time. Some can be found to be laid back, while others can be more temperamental. These dogs are always looking for something to do and should be put in a home where they can look forward to daily activity, exercise and training. Although these dogs can be mistaken for aggressive and even sometimes dangerous, these dogs will grow to be what they are brought up to be. If you want a loyal, smart, loving companionship these dogs will be there to the
Have you ever wondered what your pets are thinking? Personally, I wonder all the time. I purposely mess with my dog to see how he reacts. Well, now you can at least get an idea of what they are thinking. The humorous short story, ¨A Conversation With My Dogs,¨ by Merrill Markoe is about a dog owner who is having a conversation with her dogs Bob and Stan about how they follow her around everywhere. The author is attempting to portray the thoughts of dogs when communicating with them. In this instance, the owner is confused about why they want to follow her everywhere. This short story is a high comedy that uses witty humor and situational irony to make the audience laugh while giving the lesson.
Consequently, the dog we see fitting the classic mold outline in the American Kennel Club (AKC) Boxer breed standard is a bit different from the portrait we would see if the pup were allowed to grow up without surgical intervention. These procedures lie at the heart of a rather heated debate, especially in the Boxer world. Unlike many other cropped and docked breeds, the Boxer’s breed standard offers no choice regarding whether the tail or, most significantly, the ears may be left natural and still satisfy the
Are these dogs misunderstood? In reality a dog is a reflection of its human, they see you as a pack leader they are who you raise them to be no matter the breed. If you neglect your puppy by chaining them up outside their whole life or keep them in
All dogs, like humans, have the potential to either be nice or mean, respond well or poorly to the environment, and interact with others either up to par with social standards or not. The amount and type of socialization
Thesis Statement: While most owners are aware of the amount of joy and laughter dogs bring to them and their family, they are unaware that their dogs love them unconditionally and can help them have better lives
Boyko, A. R., Quignon, P., Li, L., Schoenebeck, J. J., Degenhardt, J. D., Lohmueller, K. E., ... & Ostrander, E. A. (2010). A simple genetic architecture underlies morphological variation in dogs. PLoS biology, 8(8), e1000451.
There are many different dog breeds and they all have different temperaments, which is partly why many dog lovers are sometimes more particular to one breed than to others. Although not all seemingly unique breed behaviors are breed specific, most importantly aggression.
Not too long ago, Ms. Morris’s beloved dog, Hattie, had 5 puppies. Everyone in town thought the puppies were boring and ugly. Their eyes were closed, made a little movement, and didn’t make any noise. Nobody thought the dogs were cute, and nobody wanted them.
People have started to make remarks of the resemblance between dogs and their owners, and from what we have found, it is usually noticed at dog shows and from strangers passing by in the streets. There are two factors that could make the owner and the dog similar. One would be people selecting dogs that are like them, and people who select dogs which features start to change and become similar to them over time. As a comparison to animals and their dogs, there is evidence that couples look physically similar after 25 years rather than people who have recently been wed. In the research we have conducted, we have found that purebred dogs have a greater resemblance than people who own non purebred dogs.
A crucial part to this dog's individuality from the other breeds is based upon their characteristics. An accurate description of them would be “these are dogs with friendly, often exuberant, personalities, and sense of fun”(the labrador site). With this type of character, it is almost impossible not to be drawn in considering their ability to fit in with any type of family or person. A positive attitude is contagious, and
Dogs and cats are the most popular pets in the whole world. Even though they’re both very popular, they are different in many ways. Some people gravitate towards the calmness of a cat, while others seek the companionship of a dog. Cats are a lot more independent and less expensive. Cats don’t require nor do they want to be trained to be a house pet. Dogs on the other hand are very loyal and will act as your best friend. Dogs require more attention and training to be a well behaved family member. The main differences between dogs and cats are their personalities, habits, and training, which all determine what pet to choose.
...iterally. Dogs have that funny little way of making you know he is happy, and, dogs are actually known to smile. A dog is a pack animal, you are their family and their responsibility to their family is to love you and protect you. A dog will always return the love that you show them, such as always being at the door to greet you whenever you get home. A dog will follow you wherever you go. If your watching a movie, he will be the warmth beside you. If you are cooking in the kitchen, he will be at your feet waiting for just one ingredient to drop to the floor. A dogs love for its owner is a true love.
In conclusion, there are various similarities and differences that dogs and cats hold to one other. This compare and contrast between the two animals is perceived in different ways. Some may think more highly of cats due to their intelligence, while others will choose a dog any day because of their companionship attributes. It primarily relies on the personality and desires of a
