Letting dogs who are not fixed run free and mate as they please contributes to some of our over-population in animal shelters.
Do you know what adds even more dogs to those dog kennels than that?
People who do not research about dog breeds and other things related to different types of dogs...If you want a dog, please do your homework. Know the dog breed, know its tendencies, health risks, temperament, and exercise requirements. For example, most working dog breeds, such as a Border Collie, needs to run twice daily. They need it! It's not optional.Most big dogs need plenty of exercise.
If you have an active lifestyle and want your dog to be part of that, get a dog breed who loves to work. If you are laid back, get a laid back breed.
If you do not know what signs to look for, take a qualified evaluator with you to select the right dog for you.
Common sense will cause the most dramatic drop ever in the animal shelter's dog population. It is up to each and every one of us to do our part!
