I do think it is really funny that I'm more likely to avoid a chihuahua or a pom out of worry than I am a great dane or the drool monster, a leonburger.
Yep. I was severely bitten by a dachshund when I was around four. I've been snapped at by chihuahuas. The rottweilers I've met, however, have been total sweetiepies. And I told them so to their faces. Their response: [pant] [pant] [languishing "pet my tummy" looks].
I love big dawgs.
And, re: pizza, there's a local chain called Amantes that I love. Their crust is well worth the eating, and they have loads of terrific toppings.
When I was growing up, I never ate the crust. Now I usually do, depending on how hungry I am.
If the crust isn't worth eating, the pizza wasn't worth buying, IMO.
Survey: Favorite underrated topping?
Mine: pineapple!
Feta cheese. Although maybe that's not underrated, but god, it sounds tasty right about now.
Back in college when I still ate pizza, the hands-down favorite was PieWorks(?) They were all about many ingredients and some fairly untypical-for fastfood (a favorite involved spinach and portobello 'shrooms.) And there was also the dessert pies where the sauce was a sweet cream cheese concoction and you could get all sorts of fruits and candies and whatnot on top.
I'm not sure if that was a local chain or what. I only ever saw them in NC.
My mouth is too delicate for most crusts -- they rip my gums to shreds. I eat the crust when I make pizza at home, which is too rarely, considering it's not actually hard.
My favorite topping is chicken. I was very sad when I realised that I no longer had the pepperoni love.
Chicken, mushrooms and jalapenos -- mmm.
I'm with Calli in the big dawg corner.
Sue, Kuma's head is outsized for the rest of the body. Poor weird mishappen dog. Though he's fille out a lot and looks less weird now.
Disappointing if you were really in it for the joy of rending them limb from limb, but effective, perhaps even for the long term.
but not effective for Bear because usually the toddlers don't recognize the growl for what it is.
Huskies, Samoyed, Akita, Shiba Inu, Malamute etc.
This makes sense to me that they are hard to read. We call them the curly-tailed dogs. Kuma and Bear both can get along with curly tailed dogs but have a hard time with others.
As shown by the attack of poor Bucky, the beagle who ran through their yard, prompting them to push through the screen door and take him down.
