Remy is an 8 month old boy, and I am very happy we got a boy. He is clearly attached to me (my shadow, and waits by the door when I run out) however he pretty much goes to anyone as long as I am around. He spends lots of time giving his daddy kisses, and when we are walking he is happy approaching just about anyone.

I definitely wanted a male -- but the one thing we knew we did not want was an "alpha" male... In describing his personality I would say he can be "timid" in unfamiliar environments - but once he is comfortable and warms up - he is extremely active and playful. As a puppy- when we picked him out - he was not the first one in the litter to jump into your arms, but he was always watching you and would come over to you eventually. His "patience" appealed to us and told me we were not getting the "crazy" or "hyper" one. Remy does not hump at all (which is a dominance issue) has not been neutered (and likely will not be because of my preference, not because we intend to breed him). While he can be headstrong, he will generally defer to us.

Good luck with you choice!
