Too often potential pet owners look for a certain breed because they think it\u2019s cute or because it has a unique look. This leads to many dog owners biting off more than they can chew (no pun intended)! When this happens, dogs need to be rehomed or returned to the shelter or rescue organization that they came from. To prevent this from happening, we can all do our part to research the dog breed that we\u2019re thinking of adopting to make sure it will fit our lifestyle and the needs of our family. In this week\u2019s episode, I discuss finding a dog that will match your environment and energy level. I also talk about the importance of understanding the dog\u2019s grooming needs, affection level, trainability and other significant traits.
