With Zane officially a senior this year, meaning I now have two grey dogs with iffy health, I've decided to think about Next Dog (also it helps me keep my mind of Kieber's back issues and the fact that in several years I MAY be down to one dog if his issues don't resolve)
This dog will come from a rescue/shelter/private rehome and I really want an adult over the age of 2. Mix or pure, I don't really care. I just want a sort of "guideline" if you will.
What I'm looking for:
* 10-30lbs (I have joint issues and don't want to hurt myself if in the event of an emergency I have to carry the dog)
* Minimal grooming (not averse to brushing/bathing or going to groomer 1-2 times per year)
* Able to get along with other dogs/animals (besides dogs, I also have cats, rats and parakeets, so nothing with a high prey drive).
* Sane amount of energy (I need a dog that can be calm in the house, but still likes to be active outdoors)
* Heat tolerant
* Relatively Healthy
