This is Sally, our rescue centre mongrel.
I don't know for sure, but I've always imagined she's a staffie/labrador cross (staffador?)
I guess she's the kind of thing you had in mind?
As others have said, the local dogs home can be a great place to find a dog, but you do take a chance that you'll end up with one that has been scarred in some way by past experiences.
Sally is a fantastic dog, very loyal and affectionate with the family (including kids) and very protective of the house - barks like mad whenever anyone sets foot on the driveway.
When out and about she is always playful with other dogs, but is nervous of strangers, if anyone tries to stroke her she just runs away which must be a consequence of being badly treated by previous owners - even after four years with us she still does this, so I guess she'll not change now.

She's almost like Bruno was, although he came complete with 'Cleopatra Eyes'.
