Thanks for the replies everyone! If I don't sum up responses to everyone's comment right now I'll make sure to add on in another post.

I want to steer a bit clear of most long haired dog breeds other than Huskys, GSD and Malamutes. I'm also looking for dogs on the large-medium sized like Weims, Viszlas and GSPs. As for Pitbulls and GSD's right now, I've seen a lot of apartments that don't allow them so I think they're out of the question for now. I've heard the Weims, Viszlas and GSPs are protective enough to the point where they won't trust someone and will follow them around, which is what I like, and will vocalize whenever something's 'off'.

And I don't specifically want a dog that is sociable to everyone, just me and that is weary or untrusting to anyone they haven't met a few times as I'd like a dog that is protective. I would also like them to trust and like me the most and not latch on to other people as much.
