Puppies
Choosing a Breed What breed of dog will best suit your family and lifestyle? There are a number of factors to bear in mind when choosing the perfect pet. Inherited behavior T he first and most important consideration is to find out the background of a breed and the reason why that breed was developed. This will give you a very good indication of temperament and behavioral traits. For example, a breed such as the Border Collie that was bred to herd sheep retains strong working instincts and therefore needs both physical exercise and mental stimulation. In contrast, a Toy breed such as a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel was bred to be the perfect companion and wants nothing more than to be with his beloved family.
