So far, considering:
1. Rescue dog of any medium to medium large variety.
2. Golden Retriever (wife loves every one she's ever been around)
3. Chesapeake Retriever (minimal shedding, good around water)
4. Standard Poodle (no fancy trim jobs, just natural, same +'s as Jesse the "Chessie")
5. Airdale (smart, no shedding, brave and can rumble)
6. Keeshond (likely too hairy and sheddy, but wife thinks they are beautiful)
7. Gordon Setter (great size and looks, but way too much hanging hair)
Appreciate your thoughts.......
