How Did You Choose Your Dog?

When you decided you wanted to have a dog as a companion for yourself and/or your family, what made you choose the dog you currently have?

Did you go to an animal shelter and choose the dog with the biggest personality? The dog that gave you the saddest big brown eyes that was calm and content when you petted him?

Maybe you inherited a stray dog. A dog that just kept hanging around your neighborhood. You felt bad for it and gave him some food and water. You know you should not do this, but how can you help but not feed the dog?

If you do find a stray dog with no tags, you can call your Town Hall or City Hall to find out what you are supposed to do. You will have to answer a few questions such as where you found the dog, if it is calm or so frightened it may bite. It is wise to return the dog as it deserves a chance to find its master. If 2 weeks or so goes by and no call regarding the dog, most places let you have the choice to adopt the dog.

You may have chosen your dog due to the fact that your friend’s dog had puppies. You and your children fell in love with them. You all chose your favorite dog and re-voted to see which dog to take home.

A loved one may have passed away and had no one to take care of the dog when she was gone.

You may have chosen a large dog so you feel protected. It is a known fact that criminals break in much less to houses with dogs.

You may have chosen a small dog because you wanted a dog to cuddle on the couch with. Your small dog will alert you better by barking due to a stranger.

Some folks get a dog to help themselves exercise more. It is almost a guarantee that you will walk your dog which benefit’s the both of you. You will become more healthy, tone up, possibly lose weight and feel better.
