Yup, an a snow shovel

The life span of giant breeds is definately a sad point. You'd definately need a King Size bed to fit all you lot and a Dane in Squash!!!

If you get a GSD you won`t need any other dogs.

boxer

group 3 - not sure of any of these ones

right maybe i could get away with this.....

alaskan malamute and siberian and husky, could have a few and get a sled team going....

the setter weim and flatcoat can work as a team and bring in game for the other ones dinner...

the dobermann and german sheperd can be my little house guarders.....

the aussie could be my agility star...

the pug because the cresties need a freind their own size...

the great dane well just cos i want it...

and the bulldog because you gotta have one ugly looker in there...

do you think that could work?

Maybe if you got a working English, if you went for show type then you've got no chance of getting anything off them, they will just run around with it and keep tormenting you as you get nearer, so I think your others may go hungry
