My family is looking for a dog that would get along with our 2 cats. We have 2 children (3 and 7 years old). The dog would live in our modestly sized home with a small yard. We are looking for a dog that is somewhat low key and low maintenance-ish (grooming, exercise, etc.) that’s not super barky. I’d also prefer it not shed too much, but I can deal! I work from 7:30-3 M-F, but can come home on lunch. I’ve read that some breeds have major separation anxiety and would like to avoid that if possible. I overwhelmed by conflicting information that I’ve read online. I also know that all dogs require daily maintenance and attention and there will be pros and cons to all breeds. I’m not opposed to a shelter dog, but I am hesitant because I’m not sure of their history or temperament around my children. Any info is appreciated!
