6 Tips to Choose the Perfect Dog Breed For Your Family

Seai.in

Before choosing a dog breed, consider your family's lifestyle and living conditions. Consider your home size, yard area, exercise level, and daily routine. If you like outdoor activities, choose lively dog breeds.

Consider Lifestyle and Space

Size matters when picking a dog breed. Shih Tzus, Dachshunds, and Pugs are good for little families, whereas Golden Retrievers, Labrador Retrievers, German shepherds, and Rottweilers are good for large families. Dog breeds for calm lifestyles are also available.

Dog Size Matter 

Consider family allergies before getting a dog. Hypoallergenic dog breeds create fewer allergens, making them ideal for sensitive individuals. Shih Tzus, Maltese, Bichon Frises, and Poodles are good allergy dogs. 

Allergic and Shedding

Different breeds live 10–15 years. Bringing a new puppy home is exciting, but it's a 10-year commitment. You must be prepared for dog ownership obligations like medical care, grooming, training, socialisation, etc. 

Lifespan and Commitment

Individual breeds require different exercise and activity. Labrador Retrievers, German Shepherds, Rottweilers, and Dobermans need daily walks, fun, and training. However, certain breeds, especially smaller ones, exercise by hopping from couch to couch.

Exercise and activity needs

Without training and socialisation, a dog breed can have behaviour issues. Most dogs need socialisation since they're wired for it. Due to dog learnability differences, some breeds may be harder to teach.
