Bitch or a dog?

Decisions, decisions... Now you've chosen your breed, now the next question. Do I choose a bitch or a dog? Both sexes have their advantages and disadvantages. In some breeds the difference between the sexes aren't big, and in others it's a huge difference. Keep in mind that some breeds are known for being same-sex aggressive, so if you've a breed that's known for it, it's better to be precautionary if you've a dog already. To sum up:

Dog:
A dog are most of the time larger and stronger than bitches of the same breed. Usually smell more of dog odor than bitches. Likes to dig the nose into it all and be «gone» for awhile during walks. Can be a little stressed if there's bitches in heat nearby. Also some dogs may run off to get to them. Some may say the dogs are more honest, and are more even in the mood and temper. More tolerant. The males can be harder to train, but when it's there, it's stuck.The males usually have more fur. However, the dogs don't shed as much, since bitches shed in some times through their cycles.

Bitch:

A bitch's in heat twice a year, and a heat lasts for about 3 weeks. After being in heat some bitches gets false pregnancies, which's very stressful for the dog. They usually are milder than the males. After a heat period they shed. They can adopt toys. Some tend also to be more whiny.
