Tips for potential dog owners
- Before bringing a dog into your home, you should evaluate your environment and lifestyle and then consult a professional, like a veterinarian, animal behaviorist, or reputable breeder to determine what breed would be suitable for you.
- Avoid purchasing dogs that have histories of aggression.
- If you have children, make sure the breed you are considering is appropriate in households with children.
- If you have children who exhibit any fear or apprehension of dogs, you should delay bringing a dog into your home.
- Before you buy or adopt a dog, spend time with the dog and get a feel for its personality.
