<human>: Edit- Thank you for all the responses! Looks like we shall go to a local shelter and see if we can find one to bring home! I appreciate all these responses and am so excited to find a puppy or adult dog to bring home and love. 

Good Day all,

My husband and I have wanted to take the wonderful journey of adding a new addition! A puppy. We both have had dogs in the past. I grew up with American Cocker Spaniels and he grew up with German Shepard's, Schnoodles and a Weiner dog. We both would love a puppy but we can't decide on the type. We are both active and love being outdoors which is why I suggested a Lab. We have our own house and a big yard. I have summers off (teacher) so I am able to stay home and train him which I am capable of doing. When I do go back to work (Sept) he can come home at lunch for an hour to let him out and play. I am home at 330. We also agreed to let him join a puppy daycare 3 days a week. 

I prefer a dog that is medium to large while he likes the small- medium. I seriously would love a lab. Has anyone else been in this situation? What should we do? I cannot picture myself walking a little guy around. I need a dog that can keep up. I dislike the type of dog that needs my constant attention, following me around wherever I go and yapping if I leave. 
 I know this is a odd relationship question but I miss the company of a pet. It has been 6 years since I had a puppy. I miss the companionship. I would most likely be the one to care for this pet but of course we both need to agree, this puppy will be apart of our family for a long time.

Can you provide a brief overview of the text?
