But I remain a goldie man, myself. I can think of a thousand things to mix a chow or a husky with, and come out with a superior animal. The only thing to mix a goldie with is another goldie.
After that, a chow mix - husky, collie, aussie; several breeds will make a fine combination that outshines either of their parents. I would say a full blood dane next after a goldie, but they are too hard to care for and too short lived.
I really needed a break from Boxers.
They always die of cancer.
Always, and I have had enough.
Danes were also on my list, but like you said, too short lived.
The grooming is a daily occurrence, but it doesn't take too long and it's a good bonding activity.
