Picking a dog-

[Nephythys]

My brothers smooth collie- who sadly died too young- would be perfect, but I don't know if I could find one outside a breeder.

Short hair
good inside and out
sweet, loving, attentive but not too demanding.
Protective and playful-

My dog would stay inside in inclement weather except for potty runs. So both and outdoor and indoor dog-but not a fence jumper.

I am also pretty anti-drool-so big drooling breeds- no good.
