Angie, I would just look around and see if you can find a pretty mellow dog for her. I also wouldn't get a puppy, they are a lot of work and it doesn't matter what breed it is, they are pretty hyper. I think a Beagle would be great, but it just depends on the individual dog.

Good luck!

PS Did you look at the picture of Sammy, our newest addition? We think he's Black and Tan Coonhound/Bloodhound mix. He's just too cute for words.
