To refer to
a dog as a man dog, is just to suggest that these breeds of dogs would
be more suited to some male lifestyles than other dogs.
I didn't really think of myself as a dog person, not until I got what is referred to as a man dog. Growing up, my parents had three Yorkshire terriers and even though they were fun when I was a younger child, as I became a teenager I had no interest or patience for the terriers, they become more of an annoyance, especially having to clean up after them, as they would be in doors for long periods of time alone, away from humans at least.
A couple of years ago my wife came home with a puppy, you could hear the commotion as she rushed up the path with our daughter. She walked in the door and thrust the most sorrowful looking hound I'd ever seen in front of me. The dog's head was the same size as her body and her ears seemed to touch the floor, she shaking and scared, after seeing her stood there like she was alone in the world. The question ?can we keep her' was rhetorical. Lucky for me she grew into a man dog, a Rhodesian Ridgeback. Which was just as well, to keep her company, the rationale; we adopted another dog, a rat-esque Heinz 57, named Roxey.
They say that you can tell a lot about a person from the car they drive, the books they read, the company they keep and their choice of dog. Is there a relevance to a man's choice of hound for his BFF and what type of personality he has.
Here are my top ten breeds, historically favoured by men that suit certain lifestyles. I would suggest as a potential partner his lifestyle choices should be scrutinised not his embarras de choix; or four legged friend, if you want to know something about his persona.

Rhodesian Ridgeback
African Lion Hound
Referred to as Lion fighters, named so because Lions were afraid of
them as they were used to keep the lions at bay until the hunters
arrived on the scene, they were also used to hunt other big game and are
said to be fierce enough to kill a baboon on their own.Kennel comment: these Dogs don’t need much exercise but of course they benefit from it according to the dog whisperer, exercise seems to be the key to most dog problems.
I have one of these hounds, okay with a whiff of boxer in her, she stays close to the house, buries bones and then digs them up to check it’s still there, guards it for hours and then decides to eat it. which is good on a Sunday when you Just want to chill and have no attention seeking hound dogging you for love.

Rhodesian Ridgeback
Bull Terrier and Miniatura
Pit Bull
English Bull Terrier also known as the Bull Terrier, Pit Bull,
American Pit Bull they have a pointed nose and beady triangle-shaped
eyes.I couldn't mention the Pit Bull without visiting the phrase: ‘It's not how big the dog is in the fight, it's how big the fight is in the dog.’
For its size ratio, Bull terriers are the ultimate power packer, solid muscle dogs. They can also be stubborn and comical. The Bull terrier has had a bad rap for a long time because certain previous owners chose to train them, torment them and brutalise them in the name of toughening them up. Which, inevitable made them vicious. If any dog is treated this way the same effect would happen.
On the flip side if these dogs are treated right, with some affection, the dog will reciprocate. Bull terriers are best integrated with other dogs from an early age because they do have a natural protective nature, which can become fierce.

Doberman Pinscher
Doberman Pinschers are used as guard and police dogs. The US Marines
in WW2 trained them as attack dogs and the Germans soldiers referred to
them as “Teufelshunde”, Devil Dogs, which they also referred to US
marines as in the 1st world war, because of the high ferocity of their
fighting. Now days these are extremely popular dogs in the USA and
around the world and are well behaved pets.Image Source

Greyhound
On land, only a cheetah can accelerate faster over a short distance,
greyhounds can reach average speeds of 43 mph. These dogs are said to
be loyal and loving dogs and sensitive, they only need half hour
exercise and can sleep for most of the day so these can be kept in
apartments.More Information on the Greyhound

These dogs are closely related to the Bull Terrier and share its dog fighting ancestry; although these dogs are fearless they are a stable breed and can be affectionate, both with its human owners and other dogs.

1. Mores and Christians Fiesta “Desembarco.”
If you are walking around the seafront or the town centre of
Villajoyosa in June you may notice that most of the men are wearing
ducktails, short boxed, French folks, and the Old Dutch. I’m referring
to their beards. It’s that time of year for their annual beard growth,
as they prepare for this year’s Moors and Christians fiesta.
Other places of interest in Villajoyosa include the
multi-coloured fisherman’s houses, painted in bright pastel colours, a
tradition that has been upheld, originally so they could be spotted from
far out at sea.
Along the seafront the bar/restaurants are close together with
outside seating, creating a fiesta atmosphere with the sound of laughter
and music, and like the beaches are still busy until the early hours of
the morning. In the summer months evening artisan market stalls flutter
in the summer breeze selling anything from clothes, handmade jewellery,
pâtés, cheeses and olives.
My favourite beach is Playa Bon Nou a quiet rustic cove
with fine white sand and pebbles. The water is clear and calm due to the
beach being sheltered by cliffs. It has received the prestigious Blue
Flag award assuring visitors of its quality, cleanliness and safety.
Facilities include lifeguards, parking, toilets, disabled access, and a
great Chiringuito (beach bar).
La Villa has a rugby and football club and at the marina you can Jet Ski, kayak and scuba dive.
The Spanish sense of humour is similar to that of the British but
they have a darker lust for danger and bad things happening to people,
that is why bull running is still so popular. Sexual endeavours are high
on the list as well as poking fun at famous people and politicians.
1. Saturday morning Rastro (flea Market).
Jalon, also known as Xaló in local Valencia dialect is famous for
its wine and you can sample it in the numerous bodegas (wine cellars) in
the town. People come from all over the province of Alicante to fill
their containers with litres of wine at a fraction of the cost
There are thirteen snake spices in Spain five of which are venomous:
A spokesperson for one of the largest and more reputable excursion
companies stated. “We always make it clear that we offer an excursion
(packed full of useful information from the bus representative) to a
fantastic destination, and in return we only ask that they sit in the
comfort of our modern showrooms, and watch a health presentation, we
provide refreshments and try to make the experience as pleasant as
possible, and remember it’s completely free of charge.”
