Here are five tips to help you make purchasing a puppy less stressful.

Tip #1: Explain why you want a dog. Do not just say “I want a puppy because of my childhood desire.” You need to dig deeper. Do you have a purpose in mind for your dog’s life? Pet? Service dog? Working dog? I recommend that you buy a shelter dog if your looking for a pet. There are thousands upon millions of shelter dogs waiting to be adopted. They would be a wonderful addition to any household.

I would love to adopt a puppy. Shelters often have puppies.

But I want a purebred pet with papers. Pet owners don’t need papers. They can be used for heating the house by using the fire place.

Decide what role your dog will play within the family. Then choose the best dog to fulfill this role. I recommend Border Collie and American Pit Bull Terrier as intelligent, outgoing, loyal, and energetic dogs. Both breeds are intelligent, loyal and full of energy.

Bassett Hounds can be slow, but they are also slower than the English Mastiff.

I am now at tip number two.

Tip 2 – Decide the size of you dog. Larger dogs require greater investments. There will be more food, more health problems, etc. Smaller dogs can live longer, so vet and food bills may go up 12-15 years.

Dog owners tend to choose somewhere in between and opt for a medium-sized dog breed.

Tip 3 – Puppy, Adolescent or Adult? First-time dog owners should consider adopting adult dogs. You’ll know exactly what to expect and you won’t have your dog pee all over your house. This alone is worth the cost of an adult dog.

I think the United States isn’t regulating breeders as well it should. Breeding show dogs is about more than just appearance. This is not unusual.

While working dogs have their problems, you’re more likely to find a dog who can do the job well if you get one from a breeder or trainer.

Puppy care can be difficult. Puppies need to be taken care of from the time they arrive up until their final days.

Tip #4: You might consider buying from a trainer center, shelter, or breeder. A shelter dog or training center is the best option if you’re looking for a working dog.

Repetition: Only buy from a breeder if you want a working dog.

You may be wondering about training center. Many dog trainers will train dogs and then purchase them and resell them. These trainers find homes for dogs that are suitable for training and search for them.

Shelters can be great places for dogs to be adopted. It is ideal to have a dog that is pet-quality. I haven’t even talked about rescues. I won’t get into the details of rescues or shelters but this article should suffice in stating that they are both great sources for quality dogs and should be investigated.

Tip #5 – Price Prices for dogs range from $60,000 to $600. Yes, that’s $60,000. Yes, $60,000.
