What is a medium or large breed of dog that has a lower energy level?
Every dog needs to go to the bathroom more than once, planning for at least 2 and best 3 times is more realistic, although it does need at least one GOOD walk a day for fresh air and excercise. Since you do too, this is good news. My experience is that any breed can adapt to living in close quarters because all they do is interact with owners and baby, or sleep. Your concern might be more with age. A puppy is active, curious, gets into everything, may be a little rough, will chew or scratch but an older dog, one that is 3 or 4 or even older will have outgrown that stuff and will be more apt to be mellow. A dog also represents an expense and older dogs cost more in vet bills because they develop conditions with age as do people. On the other hand, young dogs are more accident prone. Every library or book store, if not on line, has fat books of dog breeds with large pictures and small amount of text. This will give you a good idea of where to begin. But realize that you will be adopting
