    Dogs that are friendly and loyal

    I was thinking of labs also, since they will be alot easier to find. Their living situation is a 3/2 home, that is probably around 2000+ square feet with a huge backyard. They have a canal going to a huge lake in the backyard. It is just him and my mother living there and a 13 year old cat...
