Ok, I forwarded this to my wife and friend so they could read it at work. I'll post their replies so you can get different viewpoints.
Sounded like you wanted a BIG dog, and were following stereotypes, but I obviously was wrong! Lots of dogs will fit the bill here. Including our beloved German Shepherd Dogs (wife used to be a GSD breeder/shower). Slobber rules out most of the Mastiff breeds. I mentioned Rotts in the earlier post, but they get pretty sloppy too at times.
I'll wait for the replies, but I'll point out a caveat regarding the training now. Be aware that all it takes for someone to become a dog trainer is to simply call themselves one. There's no training or certifictation required, and there's an awfull lot of bad ones out there with some really strange or harmfull ideas. The internet will help out with references there. I'm sure we can hook you up with a board that can help.
