I'm interested in getting a dog, but I'm not certain which breeds would be best for my personality/lifestyle.
I run every morning and work at home, so spending time with a dog shouldn't be a problem. Ideally I would prefer a dog that doesn't shed very much but this isn't necessary. Larger dogs (100+) I'm not comfortable with, but I have children (12+) so I don't think a very small dog would be good either. I'd like a dog that, after it's exercised, would be fairly low maintanence, friendly and not prone to biting.
Are there any breeds that fit this or some of these characteristics?
By low maintenance I mean like, it will be fairly relaxed and not go crazy and run around the place.
Thanks for the answers.
