Dogs have long been known as man’s best friend.

It’s not hard to tell why – they’re overwhelmingly loving and often full of energy. But there are so many different kinds of dogs, and while they each have individual personalities, a lot of people have favorite breeds. So, here are my top five:

5) Finnish Lapphund

I mean look at it.

4) Samoyed

HOW CAN YOU NOT LOVE THIS

3) Black Lab

My first dog that I remember was a black lab mix (we think she had some border collie too), and thus black lab will always be in my favorites.

2) Border Collie

When I next choose a dog, I’ll probably go with a border collie. Smart and energetic, a collie would help keep me active, not to mention I love their appearance.

1) Siberian Husky

I’ve always loved the look of huskies, although I’m not sure I’ll ever get one due to having cats in the house (huskies have a high prey drive). Huskies are full of energy and adorable, despite being loud at times.

Bonus! Here’s a little trivia I found out recently – if you breed any dog with a corgi, the corgi’s short legs trait will be dominant. Take a look:

So there are my favorites, what about yours? Let me know in the comments below!
