For long distance running I would look at a Ridgeback since that is sort of their thing. My cousin has one and it is a good dogge tm but has a ton of energy.

Triangulum posted:Ridgebacks own but they have a tendency to be quite aggressive, probably not a great choice for inexperienced dog owners with a baby on the way. I will take your word for it, the only one I have ever known is my cousins who was socialised correctly for exactly the reason you state. When they got him as a puppy she had 3 kids all under 7 at the time. Not saying that you are wrong, you are most likely completely correct but just throwing in my experience. Also the thieving little arse would steal my sausages when I went over for a BBQ and of course no chance of catching him. Bonus pic of Rosco sleeping with the youngest daughter a few weeks back

Superconsndar posted:You can't socialize out genetic traits duder 100% agree, just sharing my experience and yeah the dog is brindle which is against the breed standard blah blah blah and his ridge is pretty easy to miss. He is not winning any shows but whatever.

thatbastardken posted:the ridge is a hideous genetic fuckup anyway. Yep, I remember that from the documentary by the BBC about purebred dogs where they interviewed a Ridgeback breeder who admitted she was having problems finding a Vet to put down perfectly healthy puppies that didn't have a ridge because it was against the breed standard
