I'm 75. I've had only female dogs in my life (and only male cats). All of them have been left to me and I have never picked out a pet. My current dog (my daughter's) is an Aussie and the most wonderful, sweetest dog I have ever met. Each animal is special, but some are more special than others.
I to have only female dogs and one male but really the male dog was my husband's retriever only for hunting had two females in the house wish were mine i will never again have a male dog females listen better learn faster but thats imo only
There is a neighbor dog (female) who went through a phantom pregnancy when my dog and another equally small dog in the neighborhood were both puppies. She still thinks of them as her babies.
I’m a single female, 72. Neither of my current dogs fits the stereotype described here. The girl (Australian Labradoodle-2 1/2 years old) is an absolute bull, constantly in motion and extremely competitive. My boy (Australian Labradoodle- 2 3/4 yrs old) is tender, gentle, calm and reserved. All he wants is to be with me. Best dog I’ve ever had.
We had male dogs in my family but for dogs outside my family pets, I've generally found the female dogs friendlier. There was Bama who when I'd see my friend, would block the stoop in the house so I'd have to pet her to get by. There was Bambi, who was very excited to greet me, giving a friendly woof and running towards me from 3 apartment buildings away one time. There was Pepper, a long haired dachshund. She was sweet. One time when the owners were coming in and I was going out, she saw me and immediately rolled on her back so I could give her a belly rub. There was Zoey, a golden retriever. She was a big baby!! One time, she ran up to me in a park and leaned against me. If I moved, I would fall, she would fall or we both would fall. Then she sat on my foot. And then she rolled on her back on my foot!! I gave her a belly rub and she ran off to terrorize some other human. And there was Mitzy, a sweet German Sheppard on my paper route. One day, I did the route with a 100+ temperature. I was miserable and took a break sitting on a snow bank by a house. I felt something at the back of my head. I turned around, it was Mitzy. I gave her a hug and a kiss and went on with my route. She immediately lifted my spirit. I was okay after that.
Would be nice if you could post some studies to evidence these statements. I find them really interesting but feel unable to share the information as I have no evidence 😥
There's something special about my female Basset Hound. I'd always owned male Weimaraners but there's something really cute about the female nature of my now 10-year old pet.
I was enjoying my breakfast till the line - the canine messiah - I ended laughing in my coffee and least to say it was time to take a shower. Thank you for the early morning laugh. Good episode once again!
All of opposite for me. I had 2 male Chows, no puppy bite ever, they were never aggressive toward me or my husband and very quiet. With my current female Chow, 3 years old and still acts like puppy. She is loud, aggressive, barks more often, and her puppy bite started at 7 weeks until she was about 1.5 years before she KIND OF stop. She still grabs with mouth open but not trying to bite. Even the trainer was questioning us if we really wanted her...though with all of that, she is a sweetheart and love to cuddle. I don't have cat, but one of the male loved cat and squirls are welcome in the yard...not so for her, not even butterfly or any bird can be in the yard.
weird. ihave a 9 month old female pup. unlike my previous dog who died this year (male), my female pup loves physical contact and would often initiate play. my male dog was the one who did not like physical contact. and would squirm the moment he realized that he's being hugged
Depends on the breed. I have had only one dog that was aggressive to outsiders. The rest I havent noticed a lot of diffetence in my males or females. Affection has been the same training varied by breed etc.etc. Did notice nesting on unspayex female -one dog we were houng to breed but didnt. Most have lived to a put the same age. zi had giant dogs tho. Now have a huge bloodhound a collie and a male Old english sheepdog pup. Femalez wete because thst was whst was a ailsble when I looked and what I found at the time to be right match personality wise. Same with the msles.

An Australian Terrier, or an Australian Shepherd?

My young staffie went through a phantom pregnancy even producing milk she was only 11months old at the time, I'm hoping it won't happen again

They can't because much of it isn't even true.

My female Dachshund had pups and then put a small ceramic duckling into the dog bed with her pups.
My spayed female Boxer was the most likely of all of my dogs to roam the neighborhood. The male doesn’t leave the yard even with the gate wide open.

Spaying / castrating causes a lot of health issues!
Ooollddd info
Its actually better to not castrate unless medically neccesary

My female staffy is much more sweet & affectionate than my male staffy and far more intelegent too very aware of her surroundings unlike her big bro 😊
You didn't talk about how female dogs will bond with infant human children and guard them fantically.
It is the same for human, in a couple who is more likely to ask foreigners for direction when lost ?
What does it mean when a female dog starts to shadow you more than usual?
Clearly my male is pregnant - his favourite past times are destuffing toys, reorganising his bed and digging holes! 🤣🤣🤣
when an animal is spayed/neutered it no longer has the sexual drive of an intact animal. so this doesn't apply to most dogs in the united states.
