We are wanting to get a new pup probably some time this year.
We have a coming 8 year old female Blue Heeler. Both my wife and I are leaning towards another Heeler.
We've had different ideas though on and off. At one point wife talked about a golden retriever so she could have a dog that might be more friendly towards people. She's back to a Heeler now.
We both like Rottweilers, I've never had one. I like Dobermans had a Doberman German shepherd mix as a child.
We both kind of like the idea of having a watchdog our Heeler is great at that.
Where we have a BnB on property right across from our house we have a lot of people in and out so whatever we get will have to socialized and well behaved.
There's definitely times when a dog with an intimidating presence is good, when we have questionable people on property or when the local drug dealers and users are doing their transactions close by and using our driveway to turn around or pull through. Our little Heeler can put on a good show and back it up off leash if it came to it. She generally likes children and and likes attention, but is not as comfortable around adults especially men. There's only been a couple men besides me that she has taken to.
