The Profile of a
Wannabe Dog Breed
Dog lovers everywhere
devote so much time
choosing the right dog
breeds before they decide
to purchase a dog. For
them, the dogs breed is one
contributing factor to its
value. That is why most
families who decide to get
some dogs, they know that
choosing the right breed is
crucial.
Today, there are 70
million dogs in the United
States but the American
Kennel Club only recognizes
143 breeds of dogs. Still,
with these numbers,
choosing the right kind of
dog breed for the family
can be very tedious.
However, most pet shop
owners contend that the
reasons why the preference
of the people in choosing
their dogs may vary from
one person to another is
because each person has its
own pre-conceived idea what
he wants in a dog. It all
depends on the physical
attributes.
There are those who
fancy the size, the shape
of the face, the looks, or
even the temper. But
whatever preference an
individual has regarding
his choice for dogs, still,
there are important factors
that one must remember in
choosing a particular dog
breed.
Heres a list of the
things that must be
considered first:
1. The size of the
house
Many people tend to
forget this factor. The
area of the house should be
the primary factor to
consider before buying the
best dog breed
available.
For example, if a future
dog owner is living on an
apartment, then, theres no
use to buy a large dog. So,
for limited space, its
better to opt for those
cute little canines that
dont need too much space to
raise them.
2. The children
If a future dog owner
has children, its best to
consider his children
rather than his own
preference. Delicate dogs
like Chihuahua care not
advisable because they are
too frail to let the
children take care of them.
Big dogs like Saint Bernard
could also pose some risk
on the children.
So, the bottom line is
to choose the breed of dog
depending on the age of the
children and how many are
they in the house.
3. The nature of the
job
For people who would
love to buy dogs but they
dont have time to devote so
much on grooming, then, its
best to buy those that
doesnt need too much
attention on hair grooming
like the Terriers. This
kind of breed of dogs has
short hairs so they dont
need a lot of fuss on their
hair.
Boiled down, the best
dog breed is the one that
fits the kind of life the
future owner has.
Compatibility is the key in
this kind of situation.
