    Breed Recommendation

    HI guys.

    Looking for advice on what sort of dog I should get, I'm in a good position this year to have the time to train one.
    I'll list the things I'd like in dog in no particular order. And keep in mind I have a small yard.

    Good with kids.
    Good with other dogs and animals.
    Won't need more than 1 walk a day.
    Good for tracking deer.
    Good around guns.
    Small to medium size.
    Trains easily.
    Happy to chill out.
    Obedient and loyal.

    Thanks.

    Haha, no.
    Should have mentioned that's just a wishlist, happy to compromise.

    It's ok Elliot you will
    However, the lab is looking a good bet at the moment.

    To be fair, labs are-
    good family dogs,
    fairly even temperament,
    strong constitution on the hill,
    cross over into most jonres of hunting easily,
    usually have a cast iron guts,
    and are reasonably intelligent.
