Said furball hit 150 pounds and was the size of a blackbear (sounded like one too).

Have you maybe looked at a dachshun?
Quite true, my first dog was supposed to be a medium dog, shepherd/chow mix. They thought he was chow because of his curled tail stupid shelter. But he was a very happy shepherd/lab (I mistyped when I said golden) 100 pound doggie until he died of an autoimmune disease when he was four

New doggie was rescued all grown up. (Already housetrained!) You can get a small mix breed, usually you can tell about what they'll be. My first dog was larger when we got him as a puppy than most toy/small breeds are full grown.

And dachsund is a good idea, they can be sweeties
