Before you decide what breed is right for you, consider the following questions

There are a multitude of dog breeds – with pure breeds and designer cross breeds, the options are seemingly endless. If you’re in puppy-hunting mode, you’ll be asking yourself:” What dog breed is right for me?” The answer must come from within (yep, we just on Zen on you!). There is no one right answer – it will depend on factors that center around you and your family. You may have your heart set on a particular breed, but will it fit into your current life? This is a question you need to answer honestly. If not, you’re going to be unhappy and the dog is going to be unhappy. For many who didn’t ask themselves “What dog breed is right for me?”, it may have ended to a forlorn dog left at an animal shelter.
