What are some things you can do/check for before bringing home a shelter dog/puppy?
this includes health stuff and making sure the dog/puppy has the correct temperament for your household
What are some ways to check mix breed puppies for full grown size? is there a way?
What did YOU do when choosing a puppy/dog?
and of course.. tell me a lil bit about the dog you adopted. How did you choose? What age was he/she? Does she get along with people? dogs? health issues?
before/after pics of course!
this is in the very distant future for me of course lol but I decided recently that my next dog will be a large breed puppy from a shelter
I dunno.. I've never raised a dog from puppyhood before. and recently decided next time around I want a large breed dog and I totally want to do that.
and the idea of going to a shelter and picking out a pup popped in my head and hasn't left since lol
figured this would be a good thread for anyone adopting from a shelter
