Hi Ellie,
did you want a big dog, long coat, short coat, what is the normal temperature where you will be?
Generally speaking a Golden Retriever, Labrador Retriever, one of the Spaniels would work good for you.
If you tell more about the environment where the dog will be, what you expect it to do, and the climate in your location we can generally give you better pointers.
Let us know.

Thanks a lot for your comment.
Well, we currently live in Mexico and it's getting pretty hot sometimes. Retriever, Labrador & co are a little big in my opinion.
We have a huge garden and love beeing outside (long beach walkes). Would be great if our new family member is a little protective, smart & aware, not too affectionate...
What is your opinion about an Soft Coated Wheaten Terrier?
