I like most dogs, and have found something I liked about most of the breeds I've been around. I actually have a picture of me putting a reserve on a rottie (I didn't own the dog, but the owners were too nervous to take him in the ring, so I did and they were kind enough to buy a copy of the show photo for me). He was a big goofball, very sweet. I have known (and owned) some very nice pitbulls. We had a German Shepherd when I was a kid, a GREAT dog (altho a little more protective than was probably good), but I don't like the show GSD these days, I can't figure out the usefullness of the rear end they have.
The only breed I really have to say I have a prejudice against is the chow. I just have found many to be untrustworthy, esp. around people they don't know. They are beautiful dogs, but I have known too many who would bite without provocation, and in fact would wag their tails until you got within range.

I agree with you about Chows and those modern show GSD.

They look like their rear-end is collapsing.

No wonder they have hip dysplacia problems. I can't see how anybody can find that attractive or useful.
