Born in Scotland, the Collie is the original sheep gathering dog (herding dog.) Collies are very nice, smart dogs and they love to learn. They love kids and they are great family dogs. (Fun Fact:Collie's names come from the word colley which means black sheep in Scottish. Lassie is a famous collie used in the movie Lassie.)

German sheppard!
Born in Germany, the German Shepherd is a new dog about 100 years old. The German Shepherd is a working dog that was a dog used to gather sheep. Because of their strength, smartness and abilities in listening well they are often used as police and military dogs in forces around the world. Because of their loyal and protective nature, the German Shepherd is one of the most suggested dogs for families.
The Labradoodle!
Born in Australia, the Labradoodle as a dog breed is still changing. It was bred for people who needed a guide dog and for people with allergies. They have a lot of energy and are very good for families with children. They are very trainable, they can be taught to obey verbal or sign language,or both. But most important, they are CUTE.

The Husky!
Born in Siberia, the Husky's proper name is the Poler Dog. The Husky is a medium-size, thick coated working dog that was used to be sled dogs. Huskies are an active and hard working dog whose ancestors came from the extremely cold weather of the Siberian arctic. They were sent to Alaska and Canada as sled dogs. Huskies are very smart, so smart that they can open refrigerators to get food.
The Pug!
Born in China, the Pug is a small dog with a wrinkly, short muzzle and curled tail. Pug puppies are usually called Puglets. A Pug's coat comes in different colours, but a Pug's muzzle is all ways black. Pugs love to empress their owners and they love children. (fun fact:most people think that pugs are weird because their faces are wrinkly but my dad says that pugs think people are weird because their faces are so stretched out.)
The Boxer!
Born in Germany, Boxers are very athletic dogs. They have a square muzzle, have a very strong mouth and a powerful bite. My uncle has a Boxer and they are very playful dogs. My uncle's Boxer has ABS, because she is so athletic. Most Boxers have two walks a day if their owner wants them to be healthy. Boxers are my favourite type of dog. (fun fact: the Boxer was bred from the English Bulldog and the now extinct Bullenbeisser.)
