Hi,
New and hoping to get advice from knowledgeable people. We were the owners of a glorious Dobie for 14 years. Sinjin was the best family member god ever created, and his passing created a hole in our families heart that could not be filled. He excelled in obedience trials and was as gentle with my children and their friends as the most well heeled golden lab.
It's been 10 yrs since his passing and we've fallen out of any "loop" in regards to the breed. Recently there was an attempted break in of a house in our neighborhood, a young girl home alone, my wife and I thought at the same time, that wouldn't happen if Sinjin were here! He would make sure she knew what was going on and give her time to get out or call the police. Got us both to thinking how safe and secure we felt with our boy in the house.
I'm hoping someone can give an unbiased opinion on where to start our search. We are looking for an adult ready to be a member of the family. I guess our issues are that my daughter has a 4 year old neutered pug, and a cat that hasn't moved from the bed in 10 years
Not sure if these are deal breakers, Sinjin had a cat but was raised from a puppy with it
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
