We do not know what type of dog you enjoy, but we personally find our best friend sitting in the large dog breeds. We find that the larger breeds are easier to play with and overall, they give us a feeling of protection. However, there are a number of different things you should consider before you get a dog.
For starters, are you ready to provide a home for him or her? You will need to give them a lot of exercise and the big dog is going to be eating a large amount of food. Large dogs, especially pit bulls are more prone to hip dysplasia and osteoarthritis. You should also have a vet lined up for your four legged friend.
Do you know what one of our favorite breed of dog is? It is the American Pit Bull. It seems that they are very heroic dogs. They work as therapy dogs and they also work for SARS and many other groups.
We understand that there is a lot of news surfacing revolving this dog, but we suggest you really looking into this breed of dog and learning about him or her.
Look up Stubby, who was a pit bull and served in the Military. He was the first dog to get a rank in the Military and served during WWII. You should also look up Popsicle.
Another great dog is the German shepherd. We have had a retired police dog who was a German shepherd as a child and must say that she was a lovely dog.
So, , what do you think about large dog breeds? Do you think they are for you? Remember, you need to be ready for that responsibility.
