What kind of dog should I get2007-11-25 2:53:00

I want a medium to large dog. Smallest I would want is like... a German Shepherd. I want a dog I can train fairly easily, that gets along good with kids, that could live in a small space, such as an apartment. I don't live in one, but we might move into one. It also needs to be able to do well with rodents, such as rabbits, we have a rabbit, and my Mom will not even take the smallest chance of it being hurt by a dog. So I want a dog that could at least be trained to not hurt the rabiit. We also have a small dog. And I would also want a dog that's protective, or that can guard a house if needed. I would be so into a Golden Retriever, but they aren't as strong as I would like the dog to be, and from what I've heard, they are way too friendly to be a guard dog. I was thinking something like a Pitbull, American Bulldog, or some kind of Mastiff, but Pitbulls are too agressive, and I need some kind of proof to prove that it gets along with small animals naturally, or it can be trained to(c)

I would go to the pound or the spca in your area and adopt one that is homeless.

So many people give up beautiful animals just because they don't want them anymore and it is the saddest thing. Why not make some dog's life by becoming his/her owner?
