Wish List — Your Next Dog?

As I’ve said before, it’s likely going to be a LONG time before I consider getting another dog, but just like I collect name ideas, I’m starting to collect characteristics and/or personality traits that I’d hope my next dog has. It’s a work in progress, of course, but here’s what I have so far:

• Smart
• Not fearful
• Good with other dogs and people
• Affectionate
• Athletic

Gigi (our trainer) says we get the dogs we get for a reason, but I’d like to think it’ll be a tad easier next time. Would I be willing to take on another somewhat fearful dog? I honestly don’t know.

What’s on your wish list?
