What Breeds Should I Draw?

My mom has given me an assignment, to draw any other animal than horses. So, I chose dogs, and birds.

I'm not coloring these, they will be uncolored/unshaded drawings. Though, they will be as detailed as possible.

I'm looking to draw 4 of each 'category' of dogs. Toy, Sporting, Working, Non-Sporting, Herding, Terrier, and Hound/Hunting Group.

Birds I'm looking to do about 10.
Hopefully, I'll take some pictures of the progress, as well as a collage of the finished assignments. I'm doing these in my biggest sketch book. 11 in. x 14 in.

Ones I've Drawn

Dogs
Boston Terrier (terrier group)
Italian Greyhound (toy group)
Border Collie (herding group)

Birds
None

Anyways, post away! I may give a little gift to the people who suggest something I like.

Australian Koolie.




Thought he was a blue heeler, come to discover another breed that looks like him more than a heeler, and they's called Koolies, coincidentally, both aussie in origin.

Golden Retriever!
St. Bernard!

Puffin Bird!
Macaw parrot!

Wow there's some wacky birds. Look up African Secretary bird and Amazonian Royal Flycatcher.

I wouldn't love to see a type of crane.

Love these suggestions. I know for certain I'm doing a cockatiel, and a parakeet. We used to breed both, and they're just such nice birds. We had about 8-10 cockatiels, and 15+ parakeets.

Tibetan Mastiffs! ♥

do cockatoos
i own two (a moluccan and an umbrella)
which im sure if i were to make a post or posts pictures, some people would then butt in supposedly knowing it all and be like "you should do this, or this is best for them"
and then get a pleasant punch in the throat and a kick to the teeth.
which is why i dont talk about them.

Too many doggy suggestions to look through and see if they've already been mentioned buuuuuuut

pitbulls (absolute fav♥)
great danes
rottweilers
german shepherds
great danes
great pyrenees
dalmations
st. bernards
