Go to the pound and pick a likely looking American Breed (you know - a mutt). Without a specific task in mind for the animal other then campanionship for your children and a part time watch dog a mixed breed mid sized dog is the way to go. If he turns out bad you don't have $400-$800 invested in a dog you can't let off a chain he just dissappears and you go get another.

My brothers and sisters own 6 registered "pure breeds", and 4 have genetic defects that have costed thousands of dollars in attempts to repair - usually bad hips and premature arthritis and these are in some cases less then a year old. The dogs range from Jack Russels to Labs. It doesn't happen all the time but it just doesn't seem worth the exopense to find out.
