I don't really know what breeds would be great for you, but I know which ones wouldn't seeing as how we are currently looking for a dog similar to what you described. I've learned that a good majority of terriers are high energy, simply because that is what they were ment to be a high energy dog that would work great as a hunter. I've also ruled out most of the herding breeds seeing as how in their minds they are ment to work so they do have a good amount of energy.

Also keep in mind that there are exceptions to every rule! If you are looking to rescue send all your local rescue groups an email and let them know what you are looking for. They might be able to match you up with the perfect dog!
