Choosing a Big or Small Breed for Puppies

  • 13 years ago
Choosing a Big or Small Breed for Puppies - as part of the expert series by GeoBeats. Size does not really matter when you are choosing a dog. There is a myth that, 'oh, I live in a small studio apartment or a crowded area and I should get a small dog'. But a small dog can be a crazy little Napoleon and they are barking all the time, and they are bouncing off the walls because they have a lot of energy. Whereas you could have a Great Dane who is just mellow and just likes to rest in a corner. So, sometimes the bigger dog can be a lot easier than a smaller dog in terms of where you live in the city. It is mainly about your lifestyle and how active you are and the quality of life your dog gets during the time you are not chilling out at home. So, all dogs need exercise and stimulation, whether it is a small dog, a big dog, a medium sized dog, or a three-legged dog. They all need to get that wild hair out of them and then you can live anywhere with them.
