What about the darling Irish Jack Russell Terrier? I thought that was a "real" breed. They seem to be the ubiquitous dog of Ireland - and SO cute with their stubby legs and spunky personality.

The red setter has to my favourite out of those breeds. The Irish toy collie is an interesting one that I had neber heard of before, an interesting dog to me seen as my all time favourite is the border collie
