For me, the bigger the better, when it comes to dogs. Gus looks like a sweetie.

Kind of counter-intuitively, big dogs are often more mellow than smaller dogs, and though every dog needs exercise, big dogs can be better with indoor time than many medium and small dogs of active breeds. Depends on what they were bred for.
