    What kind of dog should I get?

    I am planning on rescuing a dog from the local dog sanctuary

    I am looking for a dog that is loyal, easy trained and good with children (as my little nephews are often at my house).

    Any ideas on what would be the best type of dog for me?

    Also, any thoughts on names for my doggie??

    any suggestions would be greatly appreciated and I DO KNOW that a dog is for life...I have been thinking about this for quite a while.

    If you like small dogs Shih Tzus are great. We have one and she is loyal, sweet and great with our two kids. Dogs are awesome...

          I don't own a dog.

          But I like pugs a lot... so nice, chilled out, not too much hair, best faces ever.

          Don't get anything smaller than that though. All assholes.

            I have found that when you rescue a dog it is loyal. It knows that you saved it. You may want to look into getting a dog that is already an adult. I adopted a German Shepherd when she was 4 and she was already trained. A lot of people seem to want to adopt puppies and ignore the older dogs which is sad. Lola is now 8 and has been a joy to have. I also also adopted a Black Lab I named Husker from the pound when she was 11 months old. She was pretty easy to train. She will be 6 in July. Both of my girls are very good with kids. You need to pick a dog that fits in with your lifestyle.

              I agree. There are always a lot of black dogs for adoption. Both my dogs are black.

                        I have a chowawa and a mini pincher myself and I love them to death.
                        If you are looking for loyal,easy trained and good with children you are looking for something like a golden retriever though. They will take all kinds of shit from children and still smile and look happy.

                            I grew up with German Shepherds and have had them my whole adult life also. They are great with kids, patient and protective.

                                Boston Terriers are GREAT dogs...They're bread for companionship now, so they're really lovable and easy to train.

                                However, ANY dog from a shelter deserves a home, and like Jane said, they KNOW that you just saved their lives...I think any lucky bow wow you pick up will be an absolute gem

                                      A lot of factors to consider:

                                      1. Lifestyle: Get a dog that fits your lifestyle or your projected lifestyle... For example, if you or your family is not really active, a super high energy dog might not be best... I dog sit my girlfriends black lab, who is a "failed search dog" - meaning that he had hip displasia so he couldn't go into service, but he's super super high energy. He really needs a ton of exercise, and he's completely obsessive about toys. (called high toy drive... lol, I know some women like that!) - but once he gets tired, he's a good, mellow, obedient dog.

                                      Growing up, I had a shepard / husky. Great dog, got her as a rescue at when I was 5, she was 6 months... had her for 16 years.

                                      Hounds like beagles / bloodhounds, etc... bay / bark a lot. That's what they do. So if noise is a consideration, that makes sense to get a quieter dog.

                                      2. Size: Are you a big dog / small dog / medium dog person / family? I've always had big dogs growing up... my shepard/husky, and labs... good dogs, but when I moved into a condo, I didn't want a huge dog. I got a 18 lb Norwegian Lundehund which was a super great dog. too bad she went with the ex in the divorce.

                                      3. Temperament: agree that pound/rescues can be loyal & loving. Be sure to try to get assurance that you can "test drive" the pup; perhaps bring her/him home for a weekend to see if they get along with your family / nieces, etc.

                                      Do a search for "Dog breed selector" to pull up some online testing tools. That's what I used to find the "Norwegian Lundehund" - which I'd never heard of before, but turned out to be a great dog for me.



                                      Good luck!

                                            get an adult dog, that is still young; they dont need to be trained for the most part, and they'll always be greatful. Great ones to have around are labradors, maltese and muts in general.

                                                  If you are not very outdoorsy type active, do not get a Lab, Aussie Sheppard or Portugese Water Dog.

                                                              I am looking for a dog that is loyal, easy trained and good with children (as my little nephews are often at my house).

                                                              Any ideas on what would be the best type of dog for me?

                                                              Also, any thoughts on names for my doggie??

                                                              any suggestions would be greatly appreciated and I DO KNOW that a dog is for life...I have been thinking about this for quite a while.

                                                                      I currently have 2 rescues, Gigi (retreiver/shepard) and Lucca (chow/border collie).

                                                                      Be sure to take your time when picking out your pup, ask the shelter to allow you to take it for a walk, so you can see it outside of the very very scary shelter environment. As long as the dog matches your personality, and you have the time, patience, and willingness to research proper training, any dog is a good dog.

                                                                      I have the simplest tastes. I am always satisfied with the best.” -Oscar Wilde

                                                                                incredibly loyal, very obedient, and very loving. she's only 4 months and she has already been picking up commands very easily. she gets a bit over excited when she meets new people and tries to lick them to death, but she's starting to figure out that she needs to settle down before people will pay attention to her. the excitement is pretty much a constant with puppies though, with work and time she will grow out of it.

                                                                                great dog though, and now i am sold on pit bulls completely. other breeds don't even compare.
                                                                                Cry havoc and let slip the dogs of war.

There are stories about them essentially "babysitting" kids by moving them away from fireplaces or stairs, etc. They're also very smart, though sometimes that can work against you, haha. This is true for bully breeds like pit bulls and such too... very smart, trainable, and LOVE kids.

                                                                                      When it comes to loyalty, though, my Black Lab/Shar Pei mix is almost insane about how loyal he is to me. Ever since the first day we brought him home, he's been by my side and seems to have little interest in anybody else. Supposedly that's common for Shar Peis, though.

                                                                                          I currently have 2 rescues, Gigi (retreiver/shepard) and Lucca (chow/border collie).

                                                                                          Be sure to take your time when picking out your pup, ask the shelter to allow you to take it for a walk, so you can see it outside of the very very scary shelter environment. As long as the dog matches your personality, and you have the time, patience, and willingness to research proper training, any dog is a good dog.
                                                                                          Great idea! Also take the kids with you to the shelter, to see how the dog reacts to them and how they react back. Don't feel like you have to get a dog on the first visit, either. It sounds like you're on the right track! I had a adult rescue and she was an awesome dog!

                                                                                            1. Lifestyle: Get a dog that fits your lifestyle or your projected lifestyle... For example, if you or your family is not really active, a super high energy dog might not be best... I dog sit my girlfriends black lab, who is a "failed search dog" - meaning that he had hip displasia so he couldn't go into service, but he's super super high energy. He really needs a ton of exercise, and he's completely obsessive about toys. (called high toy drive... lol, I know some women like that!) - but once he gets tired, he's a good, mellow, obedient dog.

                                                                                            Growing up, I had a shepard / husky. Great dog, got her as a rescue at when I was 5, she was 6 months... had her for 16 years.

                                                                                            Hounds like beagles / bloodhounds, etc... bay / bark a lot. That's what they do. So if noise is a consideration, that makes sense to get a quieter dog.

                                                                                            2. Size: Are you a big dog / small dog / medium dog person / family? I've always had big dogs growing up... my shepard/husky, and labs... good dogs, but when I moved into a condo, I didn't want a huge dog. I got a 18 lb Norwegian Lundehund which was a super great dog. too bad she went with the ex in the divorce.

                                                                                            3. Temperament: agree that pound/rescues can be loyal & loving. Be sure to try to get assurance that you can "test drive" the pup; perhaps bring her/him home for a weekend to see if they get along with your family / nieces, etc.

                                                                                            Do a search for "Dog breed selector" to pull up some online testing tools. That's what I used to find the "Norwegian Lundehund" - which I'd never heard of before, but turned out to be a great dog for me.



                                                                                            Good luck!
                                                                                            It's true, there is a lot to consider. I have a dauchsund/chiuaua mix. it's a rescue dog so it is very loyal and follows me everywhere. but, he barks whenever someone's outside and at other dogs (he kind of has little big man complex).

                                                                                            But I love my dog and wouldn't trade him for anything.

My friend had an aussie shepard in college, and even with her taking the dog with her all over, to classes and anywhere she could, the dog still got into enough trouble that she eventually had to get rid of it. The reason was that those dog's are so smart that they get bored really easily...and that inevitably leads to trouble.
