Well, I am glad you at least Tried with her, and tried with a Pittie. You will find the perfect dog for ure situation! And you will know right away! But, I agree.. with Nicki in the shape she is.. I probably wouldn't pick a Young Active pup! I would pick a bit older one, that is More calm then a puppy. Might be a bit easier on her.. And you! :-) Good luck! I hope all works out well for u
