Keeping a Dog

Guest Author April 22nd, 2009

Having a dog is one of the most rewarding experiences you can have. A dog will always be loyal and devoted to you and give you unconditional love. When choosing a dog you should first consider whether you have the time to look after it and give it the attention it deserves. If you are at work all day you can not expect the dog to stay at home all day alone. It will be very unhappy and probably end up chewing the furniture. The next point is are you prepared to give the dog the exercise it needs – this may mean getting up quite early to take it out.  I have a friend who takes his dog running with his bicycle every night and morning – they both love this! Have you got a garden?  It is quite sad to see a dog confined to a flat most of the day. Have you got children? If so it is important that they learn to respect the dog and not treat it like a toy e.g. pulling its ears etc.  So if you are happy with all this remember a dog is for life and will always be your faithful friend.
