Oh, this is so much fun. Dogs are great! We have three boys and they are all different. I could recommend anybody to adopt a Rottweiler, but I guess that won't fly very wel.. I just love my Rottie. He is wonderful, well-trained and strong dog. I could take him for a bike ride without a leash. He would stay with me all the way. He is mama's boy and like to keep an eye on me. But AZ leash laws are tough.
We also have two wonderful mutts. One is more like a sporting dog. Perfect for mountain biking and can run for a while. He is only 55 pounds which makes it easier to control him on the leash. The third guy is a bit too small and he is an escape artist too.
So, my recommendation is middle size sporting dog.
Here are my boys: Big Nelson, Ramble (laying), and little Cooper
