Long haired cold weather breeds will be miserable in Florida. Give some thought to how suited an animal is to the climate you wish to put it in.

This.

How big is the yard? I hate people with large dogs and an eighth of an acre.

Yup, I really want a Malamute or Husky, but would never own one in this climate. It would be cruel to me.

I had neighbors growing up that had a beautiful Husky that would stuff itself into a metal bucket (about 30 gallons?) of water just to cool off. Texas summers are brutal.

Go to the shelter/rescue and find a mutt that fits your wants. Adults 1+ year old are a lot easier to deal with.

Then don't get a Husky. They are not known as a friendly breed.

uh, what? yes they are, I've owned two over the last 17 years, they are nothing but friendly and love attention. the only aggression i've ever seen is around other unfixed males.

Contrary to popular opinion, Chows are not entirely pure evil minions of Satan.

Huskies have the most beautiful eyes. Our summers are too hot for them, here. :(
