Virtually every dog trainer will tell you that humans are generally at fault when dogs don’t successfully learn commands. That’s because dogs see the world in black and white, whereas humans see the world in shades of gray.

2. One of the biggest things I
hate is to see people jump
into the decision of buying a
dog without taking time to
think through the decision.
When the decision to get a
dog as a pet is made without
care, the owners and the
dog suffer equally from it.

3. Reasons why you
want a dog.
Before you run out and purchase a dog,
take time to carefully consider your
decision. Think about your current
lifestyle. How would bringing a new dog
into the picture affect things? Do you
have enough time, energy and money to
adequately support bringing a dog into
your family? Sure, the idea sounds great
now, but is it a wise choice?

4. Find a dog
that fits your
lifestyle
• If you are sure that you can handle
bringing a dog into your home and
you are sure that you have what it
takes to really care for your dog, then
move ahead with caution and begin
to research what kind of dog might
be best for you.Each variety of dog is
different and requires vastly different
care.Learn what you can about the
dogs you are interested in before
making a purchase.

5. Learn from
others.
It is great to visit people who own the
kinds of dogs you are interested in. See
what their lives are really like with a
dog in the picture. The more research
you do, the better off you will be when
you finally bring a dog into your home.
Learn all you can from other dog
owners and get their wisdom for you. I
guarentee you that having a dog as a
pet is a wonderful but hard thing.

6. Involvement from
the family is
important.
Prepare your family before
bringing a dog into your home.
Talk honestly about the
responsibilities that bringing a
dog into your home will mean.
Divide up those
responsibilities so that
everyone feels like they have
an important part to play. A
family will always do better
with a dog when they have a
right understanding of the
work and commitment it will
take to keep the dog alive and
well.
