I always thought I preferred male dogs, probably because we always had males while I was growing up. When I went to get Natalie I had planned on taking home a male but she came from a litter of 5 females so I didn't have a choice in the end. LOL.

Now, if I were to choose, I think I would go with the puppy that seemed to best suit me regardless if it were male or female.

The first love of my life was a female basset hound named "lizzybeth". Because of her, I've always had an affinity for female dogs. But any dog who had the temperment of lizzy, more or female, I could love regardless.

I would have to say female. Now, I'm not saying I don't like the males, I've got two male dogs I love to death. But, it seems like whenever I have females I'm always closer to them.

I like to have female dog's more so than males. When I was growing up I had a mut for a dog and she was a female. I have to say that she was the best dog that I ever had. My neighbor hit her with his truck when she was 4 years old on purpose and killed her because she liked to chase his cows. Then we had a Pomeranian/Pug mix female. That was interesting. She was a good dog though. My parents now have a male dog. He is Wolf/Siberean Husky and is absolutely beautiful. He's a good dog. But I think I would rather have a female and I think it stems from having Little Bit when I was younger.

My personal preference is a male. IMO male dogs tend to bond better with female owners and female dogs bond better with male owners.

Yes I have heard of that happening, I think it's amazing how that works, I mean how dogs can tell what your gender is

Hmmm. It doesn't really matter to me I guess. I've never thought about it much other than my plants and pinetrees have suffered from Mr Goose peeing all over them. Thank God Hank squats.

The males I've had all have been cuddlers, where as the females don't demand that cuddling all the time. I do enjoy my males and even their constant need for attention, but I like that the females give me a break! Lol

We have 3 males, and 6 females in my house(dogs).

Lol. Yes, nine dogs. I've got three other siblings that also are into dog showing. So, the responsibilities and training of the dogs are split up, so it surely isn't as chaotic as it could be! Lol

I have a male and a female, but since both were neutered, I guess they're the same, now

They are both very sweet and affectionate. Well, beside the fact that the male lifts his legs when he pees, and the female doesn't, they're not so much different from each other

So I guess, my answer is I love them both equally.

My employee and I both don't care whether a dog is a male or a female. You see, we breed animals so we always have boy and girl pups running around. Plus what does it matter if it's a boy or a girl? It's still a loving, kind, loyal dog that has every right to be in you home.
