Help with reward system for 4 year old....

[M&E]

Our Labradoodle is a "miniature version" She will weigh about 25- 30 pounds when full grown. She'll be about 15" at her shoulders. To me it's a good size. I don't really like little dogs either because they always seem kind of "yippy" to me. I love the looks of most big dogs, but didn't really think we had the space. Look into Miniature Australian Labradoodles. They will be very expensive, unless you are willing to take one that is slightly less than perfect. Our dog has a slight underbite. She can eat fine and you can't even tell looking at her. You have to pry her lips open to even tell. We got her for much less $$ because of this.

That's one reason why we're letting her "earn" it. We don't want to rush into getting a dog. The one we have now - whom we love dearly - was a mutt at Walmart. I'm not opposed to mutts by any mean.....but I really want to make an educated decision that will be best for our family. Size is a huge issue for us because our house is tiny. But I have that same mindset - small dogs are yappy and I don't like that. Our current dog has some wonderful traits (naturally) that I would love our next dog to have - she won't jump on you AND she doesn't lick.
