Chesapeake's are often difficult dogs...my wife says no way since she had a few growing up. They can be very distant, often aggressive. I'm looking at a Lab/Chessie mix, however.
I am aware than this all sounds trifling in the real world, but I saved enough dogs, rescued and placed enough dogs over the last 20 years to be selfish on this one.
My last Lab was truly a wonderful presence...I'm looking to try again, come what may.
