Now, I'm not looking to get a dog within at least a couple years, but thought I'd be fun to post here and look at all suggestions!
Note: I know many of you will say to go get a unknown mix shelter dog, but for the sake of this exercise, please try to recommend some breeds? That's why I'm posting, after all.
Likes/Needs:
- Get along with other animals (cats)
- Not too small (that is, larger than 30lbs, at least)
- Good living in a small-ish house but with plenty of time/space outside (supervised, since we don't have a fenced yard)
- Loves lots of exercise: I am home all day and looking for a dog to go out exploring/walking with (very rural area surrounded by forest).
- Easy/medium-easy to train.
- Not too much work to groom, although long fur is fine.
Dislikes:
- Curly/puffy/wiry fur.
- Short snouted dogs.
Basically a dog that does fine in a small house (for sleeping and whatnot) but loves to go outside and exercise.
