Raising dogs is actually time-consuming, labor-intensive and expensive, so when we decide to raise dogs, we must first see if we have the conditions to raise dogs? Understand some characteristics of dogs, be interested in dogs, and want to raise dogs, but not everyone can raise them. Dogs are not toys or electrical appliances. They are as alive as us. They are lifeless every day, "eating, drinking, pulling, scattering, and sleeping". Therefore, when you want to raise a dog, you should carefully consider whether you meet the following conditions:
1. Do you like dogs naturally?
Some people are born to like dogs, which is the most important condition for raising a dog. Such people's heartbeats as soon as they see the dog, their blood is boiling, their hearts are full of joy, and they even scream indulge involuntarily, wanting to hug, touch, and tease it. Whether it is purebred or hybrid, no matter whether it is a big or small, no matter what others raise or wandering outside, I like it, and I really want to take one home to take care of it. If you have the urge to "love at first sight", such people can join the ranks of "dog lovers".
2. Is the family and its surroundings allowed?
Having a large enough yard or indoor space is a great thing for a dog. With a large space for exercise, the dog's exercise is enough, and he can even enjoy the sunshine and breeze. Not only will its limb skeleton develop well, its muscles are strong, and its work and rest time will be normal, its psychology is relatively mature, and its behavior is relatively stable. Such dogs are easy to train and obedient, and will not bark or harass neighbors. If you live in a cool mountain, you can consider those who are more afraid of heat and are native to the cold and temperate areas of Zhibner, Husky, Lovina, Chow Chow, etc.
If you live in an apartment and keep a slightly larger dog, make sure to take them out for a walk on time. Small dogs love to play with in the small space of the apartment, as long as there is a owner who loves it, they will probably live a happy life. First, its bright and white fur is not easy to be dirty and easy to organize; second, it is not easy to get infected with ectoparasites without leaving home.
3. Do you have time?
The pace of life of modern people is mostly compact. If you are studying, you rush to school early in the morning and do your homework after school; if you just get a job after graduation, you will go to work in the morning, or even work overtime in the evening, and squeeze the bus back all the way after work, and with the necessary social engagements, there is not much time left; or if you just start a family, you have to be busy with babies and children, do housework, and often fall asleep when you fall asleep when you fall asleep when you fall into bed; you have to consider whether you still have time and energy to take care of your puppy? Dogs are like children. Are you sure to make time to take care of it for food, sleep, bathe, and exercise? Organize its fur, take it to the doctor on time, get vaccinations, etc.? If you answer "yes", then you can raise a dog.
4. Do you have financial ability to allow it?
Purebred dogs need to be purchased at a high price. If you are lucky, you will get gifts from relatives and friends, or pick them up on the roadside, you don’t have to spend money to buy them. Deworming and preventing injections on time, feed dog food, nutritional products, and necessary fur and bathing supplies. When you are hospitalized, there is no "public medical treatment". Even if the dog is arbitrarily experiencing and urinating without cleaning up outside, he will be fined by the management department... and the cost is small and it is quite considerable. If these can't scare you, you can pay for it, and your financial conditions for raising it will be met.
5. Are you willing to make full preparations in advance?
Broadly learn about dogs, learn more about various knowledge about dogs, go to pet shops, watch dog exhibitions, observe how others raise them, and ask experienced people from all walks of life.
6. Do you have love, patience and a strong heart? I am willing to love and care for them. Be patient, teach them, and endure it accidentally gets and urinates everywhere. Tolerate the noise and mess it brings. Have a strong heart that can face its illness and death calmly. Because the average lifespan of a dog is about 12 years old, it will always bid farewell to the world one step ahead of us. Can you bear the pain of separation from life and death? If you nod, you will have the last level left. Can you guarantee that you will never abandon it?
Can you guarantee that you will not give up on it because of its irreconcilability, messiness, noise pollution, damage to furniture, illness... and let it wander to the streets, wilderness, and parks? If possible, and meet the above seven conditions, congratulations, because you have passed and become a happy dog lover.
