We currently have a yellow labrador that is the most amazing dog ever never chew anything, never stolen food, never run off never barked except at burglers and is a joy to live with. The babt granchildren adore her and she is unfazed by them they are careful and of course have to be gentle with her but they dont live here so I expeced her to be more wary. I love her we have always had gundog breeds she is 9 this year with a history of cancer although currently well.
Negatives are we live in a small house, we are both over 65 and although fit it is clear we will not live forever. Labradors are rather smelly. So in these circumstances what breed of dog would you suggest. Please do not suggest rescues as I have more bad than good experiences of them so will not now even entertain that route. I had thought a cocker or springer but they are very lively when young
