Hi all, we're finally going to go for it and plan to get a puppy hopefully in a few months Delighted that I've convinced my DH!
Could you suggest some breeds please? I do like the looks and size (and characteristics) of poodle mixes, but am convinced by MN misgivings about them so will try looking for some good breeders of other dogs.
Characteristics we want:
To need up to 1 hour walking a day
Good with children
Easy to train for first time owner
Not too much shedding
Not too big but not tiny
Not too energetic (so nothing with a cocker in it etc)
Relatively ok to be left alone (after being trained obviously) for 4-5 hours or so.
I have thought of: bichons, poodles, mini schnauzers.
Other ideas or thoughts / recommendations?
