Choose the Right Puppy.
When choosing a puppy for your household, there a few things to consider. First, will the dog get along with children or any other animals in the home? How's the puppy's disposition? Do you want a purebred or mixed breed, or just a lovable mutt.
Financially, a mixed breed might be a better choice since a purebred can be rather expensive. On the other hand, the mutt can be just as energetic and lovable and loyal as the other breeds. Consider size as well. Do you have enough room to accommodate a large dog, or do you want a house dog. Dogs need room to run and play, so consider what is best for you and the dog.
Pet Issues
A puppy's personality develops around seven weeks of age, so take your time and shop around for your perfect match. You want to be able to hold and cuddle your new pup. Try dropping a book during a quiet moment and see if the puppy runs and hides. Get on your hands and knees and play with the pup to see if he responds in an aggressive manner.
Starting your search can include asking your friends, or your neighborhood vet or local shelter or ASPCA. There is also a website that can help http://tinyurl.com/cplqmo
