Dogs are fascinating animals. So are cats and iguanas; but this is a dog page, not a cat and iguana page.

The most popular dog breeds

According to Sleeping Dogs, Inc., these are the most popular dog breeds:

Terriers: A small, active breed of hunting dog.
Retrievers: Any of several breeds of dog that were trained to retrieve game animals.
Bulldogs: A short-haired dog characterized by a large head, a strong jaw, and a thickset body.
Collies: A large, agile working dog originally developed in Scotland as a sheepdog.
Poodles: A nonsporting dog with a dense coat that can be clipped in a variety of styles.

My favorite dog is Herman, [a picture of Herman] a silly looking mutt with the body of a golden retriever and the legs of a basset hound.

Mom's favorite dog is Sam, a sweet, hairy, little sheltie. Unfortunately, Sam is no longer with us.
