Looking a best friend to join me on my fishing and hiking

[jamest]

Hello all,

I'm currently on the lookout to rehome a Dog to join me on my Fishing and Hiking trips! I do work most of the day but that will be changing hopefully soon once my photography kicks off and I'm looking on doing a dog grooming course so once done I will be giving out free dog cuts to build up my Experience!


What type of dog would be great for the great outdoors and don't mind being in the house for a few hrs however he/she will be over my mom's house from time to time for the company and play time with the other dog. 
I'm not sure where to post this thread?


anyway, i as of now I work full time in the IT Industry and I'm looking for a big change as being stuck in an office for 14 years has its Toll  Lol ..

any feedback on what sort of dog would be most suitable for me would be great. Thanks

I've no idea about dog breed, but I'm the same regarding work situation. Decided I'd had enough. Moved to Wales and working from home. 

Did you manage to find a dog?

Hi and welcome to the forum

Sounds like you have a wonderful lifestyle lined up for a four legged friend!

To be honest I think most dogs would love an outdoorsy and active life - maybe with the exception of a sighthound, brachycephalic, or a toy breed. It's going to be more about energy levels than breed/type.

As you are taking a complete lifestyle change you might enjoy joining our volunteer walkers and getting to know different breeds/types, it's a great way to find out what sort of dog you want by your side for the rest of your life.
