You should research the different dog breeds thoroughly. Just one example is a Border Collie. They are a herder and very energetic. They will herd anything including children. One of our family members has one and that is true about herding children. Much too energetic for us.

Dogs101 Animal Planet is a good site to look at. Just use your search engine. Very interesting and full of information concerning dogs in particular. Of course dogs have different personalities and so not everything is true for all. German Shepherds were wonderful for us. They were not aggressive just good dogs. We are looking now for another dog.

Our cat used to love to play hide and seek. And most all cats who catch a mouse in the house will bring it on to your bed to show you or leave it by the side of the bed. Not every time but they will. Not a pretty site.

Many a story to tell of our experiences with other dogs we have had and the cats we have had. Enjoyed them all.
