What breeds fit this criteria?

Man... I'm gonna stop, I might say something I'm going to regret.

Jason, are you willing to go for small dogs, too?

 

[Jason]

thats real responsible of you. Yea where i was looking they were from australia . Anyone asking more then a grand for a dog, i just can;'t do

Exactly. I think I could max out at $1500 but it would have to be a special puppy.

Whoah... dude, have you considered maybe importing an already trained Doberman (they don't shed as much and are in your "bigness" area).

I think you could afford like a well-trained, already house trained, maybe schutzhund talented, Doberman. Whatcha think?

I don't mind them but my wife doesn't want one. It's cool with me. I just want a dog man. I love all dogs so it's all good.

Though I could be wrong, I don't know if it's a sweet enough dog for us. My wife is a really sweet lady and she would like a dog to fit that part of her personality.

i would have thought it would be the other way around. There has been such a big craze for small dogs...especially with women..i must admit i was one. Its good to have such a open mind Jason

OMG that's hilarious. No, it was a joke LEA.

 

[poeluvr]

o lol...i didnt know...

 

[poeluvr]

i dont know if you stated this already. But when are you planning getting the dog.

 

[BigDog2191]

Once he decides which dog to get...

Jason, so have you narrowed it down any?

 

[poeluvr]

i think Jason knows the answer not you
i mean like a year from now, or whenever your heart tells you

 

[Jason]

I think we'll be getting the dog around Christmastime. Can't totally plan for these things but that's the goal. I think it's narrowed down but my wife and I need to talk about it. I'm thinking FCR.

i just googled a flat coat.I forgot my dad had one! It just died a few years back from old age. I dont see my dad much but i used to pet sit him, and i grew up with him. i can tell you some first hand experiences with him?

LEA, I can contribute to this thread if I want. Jason, be prepared for a thread hijacking she's pissed me off enough.

Never mind, I ignored her. Now, things are better.

 

[poeluvr]

dont give false information, it wasnt when he found one, hes getting one at christmas, so you were wrong. cant you admit that, your starting to freak me out. i just want to help jason out.
I loved my dads dog, but he was old when i remember him. He was sweet he loved babies!

 

[BigDog2191]

What an idiot. Probably talking about me even though she's been IGNORED! HAHA!

 

[poeluvr]

i know that flat coated retreivers probably love water, because my dads did

 

[Jason]

What was it's coat like and do you remember shedding? Chill out guys.
