Choosing
the type of dog to adopt can take quite a bit of time and research.
Some people like to go for pure breeds while others go for more of a
mix. When choosing a dog make sure to research into the type of dog
that will best fit in your style of life. For example, apartment
living, easy with children, high energy or low energy, et cetera.
Researching where to adopt your dog from is also crucial. Make sure to
find a reliable breeder so you do not promote puppy mills and illegal
breeding! You want a healthy dog with lots of background on the parents
and where that puppy comes from! Below are some sites where you can find dogs near you or local breeders in your area!
