How will I know what kind of dog is right for me?

Answer by  pamnyogi (159)

Ask yourself how much time will I be with the dog, how much space do I have and how much time do I want to devote to dog. You need to research for the type suited to your living space,dog exercise time,and dog's level of "need" of stimulus. There is more to getting a dog than one might think.

Where do you live? If you live in an apartment or a home with a small yard a small dog is the best choice. If you have a yard you can get a bigger dog since they need room to run. Do you have kids? If you have kids you need a dog that fairs well with kids.

Mostly chosing a pet is a personal preference. What type of breeds to which you are attracted? Do you want indoor or outdoor? I recommend deciding indoor or outdoor, large or small, then get a breed book and match your decisions. Once you have chosen a breed, visit a local breeder and finalize your questions. The reward is worth it.
