Rough collie, Cavalier or French Bulldog?

Help settle our family debate please!

We currently have two 10.5 yr old Labradors (litter brother and sister) one of whom is getting old very quickly. We also have guinea pigs and chickens oh and two dc aged nearly 10 and 8. We have been talking about our next dog, when our darling SconeDog passes on as SmallerSconeDog will I expect pine terribly.

I like the idea of the cav, I understand that they have a fairly laid back temperament and I like the idea of a dog that doesn't take up an entire sofa Grin

Ds loved the French bulldog we met at crufts, but I know nothing about the breed.

Dd wants a rough collie, and I know there is a rescue v.close to where we live. But are they all collie? By which I mean will I be rounded up while hanging the washing out? :)

I have a lovely wee Cav, who is 12 and still going strong - you do have to be careful with the breeder, as you can get health problems. My mum's Cav is deaf and has eye problems - but my lad has never needed the vet in his life.

My sister had a rough collie & she was a lovely dog, but quite territorial & very noisy.

I don't know anything about French bulldogs, but they do look adorable. I like wee dogs - I am currently lusting after a mini Jack Russell, but couldn't do it to my old boy (or our geriatric cat).

Shamefully the best detangler spray I found was Canter Mane and Tail conditioner spray, I think it smells nice too and was all I used for the last few years, was handy having something I could use on both the horse and the dogs Grin
