[quote=Anonymous]Hi, Op

I'm the poster with the dog from lucky dog.  I  forgot to add that we also were "clueless" about dogs.  My family never owned them and my DH's family had dogs but his Mom took care of everything so not sure how much he really knew.

I now know we lucked out because our dog is really the sweetest, most well behaved dog.  We only met her when we picked her up from a parking lot in DC.  If you are unfamiliar with Lucky dog they rescue dogs from South Carolina ( destined to be put down)  and bring them up to get adopted.  I saw her on their website and fell in love....But, they also have adoption events where you can meet the dogs.  If you and the dog don't click after trying than I believe they will take the dog back.

We also recommend WARL/Humane society in DC as we volunteer there.  They really know the dogs and help potential adopters match up with the perfect dog.  I would recommend getting a dog past the puppy stage as then you know the personality of the dog and you can decide whether or not it fits your lifestyle.  For example, we wanted a medium sized dog who liked to exercise but, one that did not need excessive walking or running.

Good luck!  We are very happy with our dog.  She even gets along with our five cats![/quote]
