I want a (well-trained) dog

Okay it doesn't have to be this dog. Or even an absurdly cute puppy. (Isn't it weird that you can practially smell her little puppy breath?) But I'm on my way. Rescue or purebred? Hunting or shepherd? Big or medium size? So many things to sort out. I've got some time--am in small city apartment for probably the next six months at least--so my mission is to find the right fit.

Cecilia won't be thrilled, but I think she'll like the company.
