What is a good vehicle for my lifestyle?

Hello everyone! I currently drive a 93 Ford explorer and I love it. However she is old and I want to start looking for a new car before she dies. I'm not sure what I should look into though. I was thinking a Jeep Wrangler but they are SO bad on gas :( a few things about me:

*I move a lot!

*I own a saint Bernard that I frequently being with me to different places

*I am a college student

My main concern is my dog. I plan on owning saint Bernards and big dogs the rest of my life so I want something safe for her and also big enough to where she doesn't have to squeeze in the backseat of my vehicle. I'm not really picky about Ford vs. dodge out anything like that.

I'm sorry this is so long, I don't know much about cars but I'm hoping this will teach me a few things and send me in the right direction. Thanks!

    I think a 2.5L, 4 cylinder, Ford escape will be good for you, Its got space, small engine so good gas, 4X4 for snowy days, and an affordable car

    Dont know if your looking for new or used.If your going used always have your local mechanic or someone inspect under the car. A car can look and drive good but look bad under the hood, and under the car

    And new cars, avoid buying one thats never been make before, The first production year. They tend to have a few recalls

    Also look at Acura RDX / MDX , Honda CR-V's
