Puppies are incredibly cute, but you might also consider a young adult dog. A 1or 2 year old will still be pretty puppyish but past the worst of it, and you can get a better sense of how they are with kids and cats. Most rescue groups will have a bunch, and work with you to find the right one.

I second the youngish adult dog rec, MsBelle. Puppies are a tremendous amount of work. Older dogs are grateful, more predictable, already trained.
Young Emmett (about Owen's age) was actually into the Brick Testament. A Lego-ish account of the Old Testament that caused Emmett to ask if God was a murderer. (Killing of the first born of Egypt and all that.)
This is what he found, Hec. He watched the Brickshow reviews and they reviewed the video. Owen being Owen, he asked me to buy the video so his friend Kaleb could show it to his church.

You should totally do that!
And substitute this video.
That's BRILLIANT!
