I think it's not possible to say for sure boys are calmer girls are bossier etc etc. We have a boy who is a 100% mama's boy. I agree it depends a lot on the training and your personality and your lifestyle etc.
If you get a puppy it will be easier to train him/her. If you'll get an adult you might be giving a better life and a forever home to a dog that didn't get a chance to have that, but you and husband must be ready for possible behaviour issues.
As for the grooming, matese made a very good point about shedding and allergy. If one of those are an issue, I would pick a dog that needs grooming over the one that sheds. |
