Читать книгу Secrets Dog Training Methods: Getting Your Dog Trained In a Few Easy Steps - Jimmy JD Mark - Страница 6

There are hundreds of different breeds of dogs to consider before visiting a breeder. Consider the size of dog you want, the length of coat you are willing to take care of, and the requirements to create a healthy living environment before you settle on a breed. Large dogs should not be kept in a small living area, and small dogs typically are not left outdoors. Also research the different types of diseases and sicknesses each breed is more susceptible to contracting. Separating dog breeds into large dog, medium dog, and small dog can help when considering the type of dog you are seeking to make your pet.

The top ten dogs for breeding include:

Golden Retriever - Golden retrievers are a large breed of dog that are loving, energetic, and great with children.

German Shepherd - German Shepherds are another large breed of dog that is energetic, loyal, and intelligent. German Shepherds are used as K-9 dogs in the criminal justice field.

Labrador Retriever - Labradors are large breeds that are friendly, easy to train, and very energetic.

Yorkshire Terrier - Yorkies are small dogs that are loyal and energetic. They are somewhat apprehensive with strangers.

Poodle - Poodles are loyal and intelligent dogs that make great companions for anyone.

Dachshund - Dachshunds are small, protective dogs that are loyal to their owners.

Beagle - Beagles are great hunters and have a great sense of smell. Despite this they are very loyal, and calm with people.

Shih Tzu - Shih Tzus are smart and obedient medium-sized dogs that like attention.

Bulldog - Bulldogs are mellow and kind with children, and very protective of their family.

Boxer - Boxers are great with children, energetic, and assertive.

While these are just a few of the breeds which are popular, there are many more that are taken home every day. Each breed has various grooming and exercise needs, and will grow to different sizes. Some dogs are used more for lap purposes, watchdogs, hunting, and others as great companions for children and other dogs at home. Depending on your needs and the dedication you are willing to offer to your pet, there is a dog for every family.
