make sure you get the right dog for you because some dogs need alot of exercise and some dogs need a lot of time if you get a dog make sure you give it the care it reaally needs

You may possibly find yourself over joyed to have a new puppy at your side, and decide to spoil it with toys and even food. being overweight for a puppy or an adult dog, can affect the heart. To switch your dogs food to a healthier diet, you must take it slowly, such as not to upset the stomachs of your puppies. mix your new and old puppy food together, than gradually add less of the old food, untill only the new food is being fed to your puppy. Your puppy won't get sick, and will be healthier.

a new family and home can be a scarey sight to almost any puppy! Relax your puppy, don't let it be a painful job, showing your puppy around, sit with hime most of the time, sit with your whole family and talk to the puppy and pet it, show it things it's never seen before that could interest it. New experiences such as this should be handeld in a fun way.

The responsibility of an owner or in the other way round, the responsible ownership starts before purchasing a dog and never after bringing the dog home. After bringing the dog the responsibility only magnifies. The sense of responsiblity starts with atleast a short term study about the dogs to know the pros and cons of the story. Ask certain questions to yourself before you bring the little pooch to your home.
1. Is the breed I am looking for really suites me? 2. Is the home I live in apt for a dog? 3. Do all the members of my family love dogs? 4. Dogs cant be left alone for a long span of time. Am I okay with this? 5. Money you may have. But the other two essential things that is really needed to upkeep a dog, are Time and Energy. Shall I be able to afford these for my dog? 6. In the knowledge that, having a pet means having my own child, which is an aspect with high degree of responsibility and demands a lot of sacrifice, can I still afford to keep a dog? A LITTLE CUTE PUPPY HAS SOMETHING TO SAY : 1. PLEASE ALLOW ME TIME TO UNDERSTAND YOUR BEHAVIOUR, YOUR FAMILY AND THE PLACE. 2. YOU CAN HAVE EVERYTHING -- YOUR OFFICE, YOUR COLLEGUES, YOUR CHESSBOARD, YOUR SWIMING POOL --- BUT I HAVE GOT NONE EXCEPT YOU. PLEASE LOVE ME .... IT IS ENOUGH. 3. MY LIFE SPAN IS ONLY 9 TO 12 YEARS. ANY SEPERATION FROM YOURSELF DURING MY OLDER DAYS SHALL BE DESPERATELY PAINFUL FOR ME. ARINGSBURG KENNEL akr_shepherd@yahoo.com |

I am curious to hear about the firsthand accounts of what it's like to be a new dog owner. I'm thinking of getting a dog myself and it would be nice to know the ins and outs and unexpected events that can pop up.
