No wonder, for men choose their dogs as they do their friends, a West German survey reveals - on the basis of life style, temperament, values and aspirations. When the Society of Dog Owners in Hamburg polled 200 of its members it found that dog owners seek the same qualities in their pets as in friends. Outdoors men, for example, are likely to choose larger, more aggressive breeds -- sheepdogs, St. Bernards, Mastiffs, Great Danes and Newfoundlands -- while quiet, stay-at-home types prefer Cocker Spaniels. Dachshunds, the survey shows, are usually owned by tolerant, "Contented" people, and, families with children. The latter also rate Boxers high for their friendliness and playfulness with children. Poodles are preferred by "society types and women of elegance," while non­ conformists frequently choose mongrels for pets. Stray dogs From 658-7666 yield the following; a) a black Setter Spaniel female Vk years old; b) a Collie mix female about 15 months old, black and white with touches of beige, housebroken, c) a Basset male 4 months old, brown and white good with children, 99 percent basset.
