7 Of My Favorite Dog Breeds
Pet Guide

I have loved all dog breeds my entire life and I have had a few of them over the years, but there are so many different dog breeds that it is hard to pick a favorite one. I have compiled a list of my favorite breeds because I could not deny one breed over another to be my favorite. Some on this list are because of personally owning that breed and others are on this list because they are dogs I desire to have in the future. No matter how this dog breeds ended up on the list, I will say that they have an equal part in my heart.

1. English Bulldogs

The English Bulldogs have to be one of my favorites for a couple of reasons. For one, I own two English Bulldogs right now and they are the joys of my life. But I also love their fat rolls and wrinkles. They are just like chubby babies that make you laugh. They are also a mild tempered dog, so they don't really need much to be happy with you.



2. St. Bernards

Ever since I saw the "Beethoven" movies, I have wanted a St. Bernard puppy. They seem like they are smart loyal dogs and that is what I love about dogs in general. I also like the fact that they are fluffy, so they would make great cuddle partners. They are just gentle giants and I would love to have one when I move out on my own.



3. Pomskies

From the moment I meet our Pomsky I fell in love, she is the perfect cross between a Pomeranian and a Husky. With the look of a Husky and the size of a Pomeranian, I could not have asked for a better dog. They are very loyal dogs and very good protectors. Another reason I like them is that they don't actually shed as much as you think they would, which is just another plus to have.

4. Weimaraners

Speaking of protective dogs, I have had experiences with Weimaraners that have made me feel very safe. I would definitely like to get one in the future because I wouldn't have to worry about anyone coming into my home with one around. They are also big cuddle bugs and would literally sleep anywhere, just as long as they are with you.


5. Pit Bulls

These dogs are on my list of favorite dogs because they don't get the chance that they deserve in society. They are a misunderstood breed and I am determined to help change the stigma they get from society. I think they are gentle giants when they are raised right and I think that they are great protectors. I have also seen many Pit Bulls interact with children and have seen nothing but gentleness between them.


6. German Shepherds

My cousin has a Shepherd and he is one of the sweetest dogs you will meet. Again, I think that they are great protectors for family and who needs a security system when you have one of these dogs living with you. They are also a fluffy dog, so they would also make great cuddlers and what more could you ask from a dog?


7. Corgis

Corgis have to be one of the funniest dogs I have seen. I love them. They have long bodies with short legs, it makes them look funny when they walk and it also makes them perfect entertainers for you. Also the Queen of England has Corgis, so what would be a better choice for yourself? I know that I can't have all of these dogs when I grow up but I can always dream and maybe one day it will happen. I would also like to say that Corgi are also fluffy, so if it is a pillow you need then you have it with a Corgi.


Of course there are many other breeds of dogs out there and I'm sure my list of favorite breeds will change as I encounter more dogs in my future but as of now, these are my favorite breeds. I love all dogs equally and want all dogs to have an equal chance at a loving home, so maybe this list can help you decide what kind of dog breeds you like best and help you decide you might want a dog for yourself.

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.
