   Favorite: Giant schnauzer. Protective, regal and powerful

   Least favorite: any of the drooling large breeds…I can handle a lot of stuff but big droopy, sloppy kisses really just gross me out!

   Favorite: German Shepherd; i’ve always loved them and wanted one
   Least Favorite: Komondor; they’re the "mop dogs" and they just look really creepy, though i’m sure they’re great dogs

   Favorite- Huskitador (husky/lab/akita hybrid). You have all the playfulness of the lab, with the pulling strength of the husky and the protective instinct of the akita. They’re strong, large, intelligent dogs and are amazingly beautiful. Pure muscle!

   Least Favorite- Neapolitin Mastiff. Just never really liked them. They’re really ugly and they drool too much for me!

   I already answered so I’ll copy and paste-

   I am a small dog person but I love medium to large dogs. I dislike giant breeds.

   Favorite large dog- Hungarian Vizsla & the Australian Shepherd. (I know there medium sized but thats as big as I like)

   Least- Probably Newfoundlands. There just so giant, have lots of fur, giant craps all over the yard and rivers of pee, so much hair, not to mention DROOL! so much drool, just slow giant creatures- not fond of them at all.

   With that said I love all dogs. There are just some that I wouldn’t consider owning like the newfie NO way!

   Kind of a tough question for me.
   Ibizan Hound is likely my favourite.
   Along with:
   Newfoundland
   Rotts
   Doberman
   Akita
   Irish Wolfhound
   I chose Ibizan hound as my top favourite because of their overall personality, they are such intelligent dogs; and yet such a rarity to see around here. The stunning resemblance to Anubis is intriguing as well.

   My least favourite is also tough.
   Likely an Afghan Hound
   I’m really not overly a fan of the Afghan Hound. The ones I have encountered have been very "aloof" the best comparison I can think of would be like the stereotypical "dumb blonde" personality?
   The dogs wouldn’t listen, wouldn’t learn. I’m sure with proper training the dogs could have been fine, but they’re just not my type of dog.

   My favorite is probably a labordor dog because they are playful and energetic.

   Quite honestly I don’t have a least favorite large dog breed.

   I like pretty much all large dogs. What do you constitute as large though? Giant breeds or just large dogs.

   Out of the large dogs I would say labs because they are just so fun loving and incredibly loyal. I have a lab and she’s the other half of me.

   Out of giant breeds I love great danes. They are just big goofs.

   My favorite is those big furry sheepdogs [not sure what they're called, but I think they're large lol], with the hair covering their eyes.

   And my least favorite is St. Bernards… They look like they would drool entirely too much.

    favorite is the great dane hands down!!! they’re so mellow and full of personality

    least favorite is probably the airedale terrier or the chow. the airedale is too hyper and destructive. the chow tends to have an uneven temperment and i havent met many i’d ever really trust

    My favorite is the greyhound, which at 80+ lbs I think qualifies as a large breed. They’re just overall amazing dogs, especially the retired racers, and they deserve to have more people interested in them and adopting them.

    I like all big dogs (it’s the small ones that I have problems with) but my least favorite is probably the irish wolfhound. I have friends who have two and they’re great dogs, but I don’t really like the texture of their fur.

    I’m in love with Great Danes. They are so big and cute. They have great personalities too. I don’t really like St. Bernards even though they’re adorable because I don’t like the slobber. HaHa

    I loooove collies:

    These ones, not the border collies! (although I love them too)
    They’re such gentle creatures, with interesting and cute little quirks.

    Not sure about least favourite..
    I’d say Rottweiler, but ONLY because the stupid neighbour keeps leaving his gate open and his dog comes out and tries to attack my husky and new puppy when I’m walking ‘em (
    But I’ve met a lot of nice Rottweilers too, so it’s hard to decide.
    All dogs are great, all depends on how they’re trained.

    I like Golden Retriever. Actually I love Golden Retriever! The reason is it is very intelligence and versatility (multitasking). At the moment, I do not have any specific least favorite large breed dog, because I truly believe that dogs are man’s best friends. I am a dog lover myself, just created a website, there is a section on big dog breeds, hope you like it: http://www.puppy-training-at-home.com/big-dog-breeds.html
