I'll chime in and tell you to avoid the pet store too.
Contact a few Vet office's and ask them if they can refer you to a local breeder of the type of dog you want. Meet the breeder, meet their dogs and go from there. Any breeder worth their salt would deny selling one of their dogs to a person they didn't think is ready for one of their babies.
I'd suggest looking at a mixed breed, but if you are determined to get a pure bred, start by looking at the traits of the dog of your choice. You may end up with a totally different dog than you thought you might like.
