Mugsy: I totally agree. When I got Jo, I intended to get a diff dog, but I say her jump up, so I need to 'just hold her' then I HAD to have her, I feel in love with her the min I held her! I'll end up doing the same, but I'd like to see everyones opionion on the breeds. What I ment by med sized dog was, not a toy, but not a great dane. (dad doesnt like them :[) Thanks for you comments

Aly: I agree with the shelter thing, and thats definitily where im going 1st. But I plan to get a dog I click with..as stupid as that might sound. I know adults are more grateful, but I think think I'll get a pup. A lot of people would like older dogs if they have busy jobs and dont have time to train the pup, plus, there isnt many adult dogs at all in the shelter. I'd like to train the pup myself, and learn the things I missed with Jo. I hope if I keep trying i'll get to be a good trainer sometime. I learned lots of things with Jo not to do with a new pup. Mind you, if i 'click' with an older dog, then thats the one for me :] I just wanted ppls opinions on the breeds. I'm sure a lot of you have fav breeds you've always wanted. Or you'll stick with one breed, cause you love them. I just totally love these breeds (I love them all but anyway) and not sure what I'll do. All I know is I look forward to looking for one, and picking the perfect one out, and caring for it :]
