"Like owner, like dog

Trib p.m. surveyed local dog breeders, animal shelters and veterinarians to decipher what your dog says about you. Their tip: You can usually describe the dog breed and the owner with the same traits. Scary how well that works, isn't it?

Boston Terriers: Big dog in a small package. Active and will stand up to anything.

Rottweiler: Rough exterior, cuddly on the inside. But the bite can be as bad as the bark.

Poodle: High maintenance. Attention seeking. Propensity for wild 'dos.

Chihuahua: Toys. Are these things (and owners) for real? Think Paris and Britney.

Pugs: Endearing. Love attention and will not leave you alone until you rub their bellies.

Great Danes: Masculine, but elegant. Gentle giants. Could be overcompensating.

Basset Hound: Sappy and happy-go-lucky. Hard to dislike something (someone) with such a pathetically cute look.

Labrador Retriever: Smart, funny and energetic. Loves to entertain and be entertained."

Going back a few years my wife and I were sailing with our bull terrier. Put into a marina to take on fuel and a young man (who worked there for the summer) came over to chat after we finished fueling. He was intrigued by our dog and wanted to know (kidding of course) if he could borrow our "cool" dog commenting he would make great "chick bait"!

Didn't mention bulldogs or cocker spaniels (my favorites).

Boo.
