Animal Services Division impounds thousands of dog every year. We have written this to help you understand the ownership responsibilities of a companion dog, and to ensure your successful lifetime together. The best place to start is by getting a book about dogs and their requirements . It is much easier to take a book back, than a living, feeling pet. Selecting the right dog for you and your lifestyle is very important.
Dogs come in all shapes, sizes, coat lengths and type, color and temperament.
In fact, such a selection often has definite advantages. The adult dog more often is house-trained and the rigorous feeding schedule necessary for the young puppy can be avoided. Ask about adult size and appearence. Ask about his temperament. If you want a calm, stable dog, look for an easy-going animal.
