Instruction: How to decide what type of dog you want to purchase or adopt?

Response: You should make sure you pick a dog that best suits your lifestyle. Size, activity, age and breed all play a factor in the type of furry friend you want to keep around. Bigger dogs tend to require more space and more time outside to release their energy, otherwise, you'll see it unleashed inside your home. Smaller dogs tend to be more manageable but just be careful not to sit on them. If you have an active lifestyle, you'll likely want to keep to a dog that will also be happy to be outside and run around. If you tend to stay in more, a less active/older dog could be better suited for you.
