My wife and I promised our kids that we will give them a dog to play with, and we are looking for advice to choose the right dog. I will let her know about your recommendations to choose the right dog for our family.

I’ll have to keep this in mind when I find the right dog for our family. My husband loves hunting and is wanting to get a hunting dog. I’ll have to do some research and see if we can find the perfect puppy.

It’s awesome how you mentioned about considering the breed of the puppy in order to have the relevant health clearances. My nephew wants to get a puppy for his birthday, so I’ll consider recommendations to choose the best pet for him

It is important to remember that looking for someone that is organized and offers the type of pet you want can help you get the company you need. My children have been asking me for a puppy for a long time and I am glad I found your article, I feel ready to choose one now.

I think 6 weeks is quite young to get a pup ..(mine was 8 weeks and I think that’s what is recommended) but agree with the previous poster. The breeder should have given you a pack of the food your pup was having and/or details about feeding. You can change the food obviously – but better to do it gradually.
Good Luck

Did you change the type of food your feeding your pup? Sometimes the simple solution is to go back to what he or she was being fed by the breeder. You can also get a powder to add to their food to help change over to the new food safely. Talk to a reputable Pet Store Owner. This is just one possibility. Good Luck!
