Choosing a pup is almost certainly the most important decision regarding his pet,that an owner ever makes; the individual that is selected will be his responsability for many years to come.
A host of considerations affect this choice:
- The size of home and garden,
- The size of the dog,
- The facilities for exercise,
- Personal preferences regarding breeds,
- The choice available,
- The health of the available puppies,
- The desire for pedigree or non-pedigree,
- The prefered sex,
- And the behaviour of the puppies in the litter.
Many of these decisions are matters of common sense,for example whether there is enough room for a given size of dog,although a surprising number of owners make mistakes over this; hence the need for welfare organizations to look after abandoned pets. However,the puppy's behaviour is vitally important,and here there a number of considerations,which often pass unnoticed by even the most considerate owners
REMEMBER " Certainly puppies must be purchased somewhere between six (6) and thirteen (13) weeks"
