Do you really think it would be fair for any dog to have to be "perfect"? You never, ever get any living animal with the intention of getting rid of it if it's not perfect. There is no such thing as a perfect dog. There's plenty of really, really good dogs but it's all dependent on the common sense and skill of their owner. This isn't a household to bring an animal into.

AUSTRALIAN SHEPHERD!!(aussie)--they are medium sized they are soo friendly and loyal, they are a little bit pricey, but they are so worth it! They make great inside and outside dogs, they are really cute and come in a variety of colors, they are the easiest dog to train that i have ever owned (like your mom, my mom is very picky and we have been through so many dogs and this is the only dog that we kept because it was the only one that my mom had the patience to house train), and they are SO friendly and loyal. They follow you around the house and won't let you out of their sight. It took us about a week to house train mine and she hasn't went in the house again. She learned sit and lay within two tries and learned shake within three. She learned how to play fetch wihtin ten min. and she has learned many other tricks just as fast. They very laid back and sleep a lot but anytime you want to play they are ready. They don't chew on anything but chew toys. If price is an issue, I'm sure you could get a mutt and it would be just as good. Aussies almost never bark and the only time they will bark is if you are mean to them. I would suggest an Aussie to anyone, but if you don't have the time for a dog, don't get an Aussie because they can't be kept in a pen all day without attention, they would go crazy because they love people too much. They are also great around people of all ages (including babies).

No dog is perfect, and every dog is different. Try talking to your mom and explain that you can try to get a really well-behaved dog, but that it will never be perfect and will sometimes do things she doesn't want it to. Point out that you make mistakes, but she didn't give you away, and it's the same with dogs.
I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but if your mom is that picky about what type of dog you get, she probably really doesn't want a dog and won't put up with much. If you can talk to your mom and get her to soften up a bit, that's great. If not, I think it'd be best to wait until you're out on your own to get a dog, because it wouldn't be fair to you or to the dog if you got one and then your mom gave it away.

ok so everyone else is right. No dog will be "perfect." But a couple breeds who might come close would be the bison frise', poodle, maltese, boston terrier. These dogs can be easily trained if you take the time and effort. Any dog would be great as long as you take the time to put into it. no dog is going to automatically do what you ask, you have to train them. Good luck.

No dog is perfect. I suggest NOT getting a dog because whatever dog you get it will not be perfect- ever. You're not perfect either. You're dog will probably end up being given away (probably on Craigslist) or dumped at a shelter because they all make mistakes (they bark, bite, chew things up, go to the bathroom in the house, etc). You don't buy a perfect dog.
Don't get a dog is my advice.

You had better not get a dog if your Mom expects it to be perfect. There is no such dog. But if you train one from puppyhood in the ways you wish it to act, you will have a nice dog.Beagles and lhasas are barkers.

each and every thing carefully. even though snacks you supply, bear in mind that those are not 'calorie loose'. i'm no longer asserting do no longer supply treats, merely which you ought to be effective which you do no longer over do it. Carrots are fantastically good (yet no longer too many or you will get orange poops) Peanut butter Little cut back up products of liver. Apple is okay Bananas are yummy (i visit proportion my French Fries with my boys, yet i individually shouldn't... one or 2 fries won't harm an 80lbs lab however) *circumvent* Grapes - might nicely be pretty poisonous Chocolate (for sure) Milk products in maximum circumstances have an inclination to reason loose stool (whether a tiny piece of cheese each and every so often won't kill them) Onion Garlic maximum canines will regularly have fun with extra, smaller treats than one enormous manage, so destroy treats up in to small products.

A stuffed animal from a toy store.
A poster to hang on the wall.
There's no such thing as the perfect dog.
Shelter mutts make great pets.
Talk to the shelter attendants. They can show you a good dog for your family.

No dog is perfect and they are have something different about them. As for a dog....i'm not quite sure, i would say a sheltland sheepdog b/c thier easy to train and are very loving, but they shed alot and bark alot.

Save up and buy an adult dog that has already been trained by a professional handler. Retired show dogs fit the bill.
