I'm American with primarily Irish, English, Welsh heritage (roughly 75%) with a Jewish (heritage) great-grandfather and some Native American, Russian, and French thrown in. So... American Cocker Spaniel lines up with my primary heritage, kind of, maybe. My dog is half of that.
Other dogs I'd consider:
American
Australian Shepherd
Boston Terrier
Boykin Spaniel
McNab (dog) (love!!!!)
Silken Windhound
English
English springer (dog is half that)
Border Collie
English Cocker Spaniel
English Springer Spaniel
Field Spaniel
French Bulldog
Sussex Spaniel
Whippet
Welsh
Cardigan corgi (kind of want one, anyway).
Welsh Springer Spaniel
I love Irish setters, but they are a little too big for me, though I might still get one, someday. Irish wolfhounds I love, but they are HUGE! English setters are again a little too big, but I love them.
