For this issue of The Dog Journal’s Results section, we’re going to talk about something a little different! In issue two, we did a giveaway drawing, and on the entries, we asked two questions. Everyone that entered for the drawing needed to fill out the answers to the questions, and the answers that came back were so interesting we decided to share them with our readers.
What is your favorite breed of dog?

What is your favorite part of TDJ?
Again, considering who our primary participants were, these results don’t surprise me completely. I really love the fact that we’ve got all of these young people taking an interest in dogs and dog breeding, and I love the way they’re thinking outside the box, and wanting to do different activities with their pets etc. Looks to me like we’ve got an interesting generation of dog breeders coming along!
