Tips for Having a Great Family Dog

Your dog needs to be socialized from the time you make him/ her part of the family. If you have them around different age groups and other home pets, you will have a friendly dog.

Remember that your pets are a lifetime commitment. They ask so little and give so much. Make sure that you are in charge and your dog will sense it. Talk to them as if they are human and they will understand a lot of your conversation as you continue to do this.

Two dogs are a good idea as they are companions for each other. If you can only have one, they can do very well with a caring person/family.
