And I personally think it's a great idea to think ahead, especially when you're considering a different breed.

I'm currently talking to a Flat-Coated Retriever breeder about getting a puppy in 3-4 years, after college, and after we move out on some acreage. This type of decision is one that requires lots of planning if you are going to be getting a dog from a reputable breeder.
