And don't limit yourself to puppies sometimes the older dogs make the best canine friend you'll ever have!!!!!

Excellent point, and I'm kicking myself for not saying this!
IMHO, almost all dogs are wonderful dogs in one way or another. I bet if you just went to a shelter one day, you'd probably find one -- or more -- awesome dogs. Mixed breeds can be wonderful as well, because as far as I know, they tend to have less trouble with the genetic problems that often plague purebreds.
