I've had three dogs that I've connected with.
My first was a mutt from the pound I got as a puppy, and who grew to be the kindest 110 pound mutt I ever knew (at least to me). He was the loyalest of my dogs, would never leave my side.
After he passed away I got a golden retriever who never ran out of energy, and if you weren't playing with him would ALWAYS want someone to be petting him. My grandparents moved in at the time, and because my grandpa spent all day with him they connected similar to my previous mutt.
After moving out on my own I got myself a rottweiler/blue heiler puppy. He's grown up with me and four or five other roommates, and even within the house he has his loyalties. Sometimes I feel I can read his mind.
I've had other dogs that I've acquired later on in their lives, but did not feel that same connection with my puppies. They didn't have that ability to know what to do just from a look of your eyes.
