either a Golden or an (adult) border collie. I didn't think I was going to live through my Einstein's puppyhood... and I was only 35 at the time! But he was such a good dog, and so smart!!! He was also one I could walk without him pulling me off my feet. Although I did have one bruiser of a cat who'd come to live with us that would go out with hubby when he took Einstein for walks. Lucky got so put out at Einstein beginning to race across streets that at one point when Einstein started, he jumped in front of the dog and waited until he was sure the coast was clear of cars. VERY smart street cat!
