We are about to add a doggie back into our mix. We want an australian cattle doggie. We will be picking from rescue shelters, or breed rescue. Mixed breed doggies can be wonderful.

It doesnt matter if you pick little or big. What does matter is its tendencies. Beagles like to bark. Would barking drive you nuts? they need to go out an walk. Weimiriener(sp) MUST run, and have room to roam. Little tiny dogs sometimes get nervous, and easily get under foot. Many have personality issues and become aggressive when anyone tries to sit next to the owner.

If you want a big doggie, go get one. Dont settle for a lil doggie. Just make sure that you get the training, and skill set to go with him. Dogs love to know what is expected of them. As long as you are firm, and consistant with him, you should be able to train him as a helper doggie, and not just an under foot doggie.

Im glad you are thinking about bringing home a doggie.
