Dogs
I am looking for a dog. I've been all over the internet.
Med size short hair male that must like cats.
Any and all suggestions appreciated.
Woof.

Found both my dogs on petfinder, both as 8 week old puppies.
Think any dog will be able to get along with cats if raised right. Mine have no issues with them.

Slingah, I know everyone has their favorite breeds, but while they may have long
hair, you'll never go wrong with a Golden Retriever, imho. Most short hairs shed as much as long hairs and it sticks in everything where the long hair stays on the surface. Greatest temperament of any dog I've ever known, loves to swim and will stay by your side while fishing or anywhere else. Labs are great too but are higher strung. Good luck finding the right one, for sure he'll be a lucky dog if owned by you.

If you get a pup the cat will probably establish who's boss right away and they'll be fine. An older dog may present an issue. Energy level is a big thing you need to consider when choosing a breed.

Got my present dog "the Chief" on Petfinder at a shelter called "one tail at a time", those people were great to deal with. Lab/Hound pup mix, pissa Dog. Plenty of awesome good dogs and pups at the shelters that will love ya for giving them a good home. He gets along with the wifes 4 cats. But like others said....he came into the house as a pup to an established house of cats....although at that time we had and old female dog that showed him the ropes also.

I guess one thing you have to think about Slingah is the breed.
Unfortunately certain breeds like the pit bulls, German Sheppards, Rottweilers......there are a few more.
If you get one of these breeds, once your HO insurance finds this out, and they will eventually.....they greet you with some more $$$ on the annual premium.

My boy Bait. Found him on Petfinder 4 years ago. He was the Eukanuba Dog of the Month. Jumped all over him and rescued him. Cost 400 bucks for: transportation (he came from TN like most), he was fixed, he had chip implanted in his back in case he got lost, and he had all his shots. Best purchase of my life, best dog I've ever owned...

Beamie that's another reason to get a mixed breed.
My pit is registered as a boxer mix, makes no mention of her other "mix" so no increase of rental insurance and no issues bringing her places.

Got a 16 month old English Pointer 11 years ago while on vacation up in Maine, she has been the best dog ever. Goes on point naturally (very cool) and loves to run, back in her day 6 miles was easy for her. Very laid back and likes to chill with the family. Name of the shelter was Lincoln County Animal shelter near Boothbay.
