Owning a dog can be a fulfilling and rewarding experience. Much thought and consideration needs to be put into your choice of breed. Always bear in mind the size, temperament, exercise and grooming needs of the adult dog.
Consider your lifestyle, commitments and availability of time on a daily basis, your ability to exercise and your ability to pay for the myriad of expenses dog ownership brings.
Your property must have secure fences and gates regardless of your choice of breed. A safe and comfortable kennel or bed must be provided, with access available at all times.
If you have children, you must take their needs, activities and ages into account, as your new puppy is to become part of their family.
