We might look into a breed-specific rescue once our current puppies are no longer with us. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-got-a-puppy-when-your-lo-was-a-bit-older-what-breed-would-you-get#post-422747 Thu, 29 Nov 2012 17:38:04 +0000 MsMini 422747@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I will likely never own any dog that weighs less 100 pounds ever again. Giant breeds are so calm and cuddly! Our next dog will either be another Newfoundland dog, or a Great Dane, or maybe a St Bernard or English Mastiff ... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-got-a-puppy-when-your-lo-was-a-bit-older-what-breed-would-you-get#post-422746 Thu, 29 Nov 2012 17:37:23 +0000 Chastenet 422746@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A pug!

But here in Brooklyn, I wouldn't feel safe having Charlie walk the dog all on his own! So then Bee and I would end up walking him all the time... boo.</p> <p>Anyway, would you consider getting a puppy when your LO was a bit older? If so, what breed would you get? </p>
