Well...as my user name might indicate, a West Higland White Terrier, developed by the Chief of Clan Malcolm/MacCallum (I'm a MacCallum).

I vote for Welsh terriers!

Please forgive my indulgence. I miss them so.

Regards,
Rex.

I vote Border Collie. Two dogs that I love very much are (and were) border collie crosses. I am too nervous to have a purbred BC, I fear it may out smart me!

i had a golden Labrador /Retriever mongrel dog i was about 4-5 when i got "barney" a name i gave him from my love of the flintstones cartoon as a boy

the poor bugger sadly had to be put to sleep due to prostrate cancer when i was 22 this dog was one of the lads and almost like a brother to me in some ways, a few years before he became ill he had the fitness of a 10 year old from what a few vets said mainly due to playing with all my mates
give me a mongrel anyday ....inbreed/pedigree dogs to me just don't seem right and are more hassle with genetic health issues than a bog standard mutt

Gordon Setter!..I am fortunate enough to be owned by a daughter of this year's Best of Breed (Gordon Setter) winner at Westminster, E.T...and last week she became a Canine Blood Donor! A "Blue Blood" and a blood donor! Can you tell I couldn't be prouder?

Whippets are said to have originated across the Border in northern England in the 19th cnetury, bred down from greyhounds. There isn't a sweeter breed.
