Do dogs have favorite types?

 Dogs have full of personality, and each dog has their own quirks. And, there are many kinds of looks, sizes, and scent in dogs' community.

 In doggie community, do they have their favorite types?

 I think they do to some extent. Dogs have emotions and express them with facial expression, vocal, and body language whether they are comfortable with situation around them or sad or happy or feeling fear etc.. So, maybe they could have dogs that could not get along with or dogs that are inseparable and get along very well.

 With Palette, to some dogs, she put her ears fold back,head low to the ground, butt wagging in the air and greet nose to nose. To other dogs, especially to dogs that come up to her and go to her rear right away without nose to nose greeting or the dogs that barking at or lunching at her from a bit distance, she freezes, and I feel tense although she does not lunch at them or anything, just I can tell she is uncomfortable and be alert around her.

 She seems to do fine with any size of dogs as long as the dogs that come up to her comes and greet nose to nose calmly. Dogs come right to her butt without nose to nose greeting is, it seems, she does not feel comfortable with.

 Occasionally, when we meet other dogs, she folds her ears back,head low to the ground, butt wagging in the air and go attempt to nose to nose greeting but other dogs just growl at or start barking at her as she comes close, and end up keep walking and pass by the dogs. So, sometimes, her friendly manner does not get accepted.

 What matter to dogs that make them go ..... " My favorite type is .." ?

 Looks? Personality? Female/male? Or, scent? Do they have scent they do not like? If they had very bad experience with particular dogs, they feel uncomfortable around dogs that resemble to the particular dog? In other words, bad experience also influence to form the new relationship?
