Even after they have grown out of the puppy stage of life, a dog still requires a lot of care.
Balancing their diets, giving them enough exercise, and taking care of their health are all your responsibility as a dog owner.
A family member
When you first buy a puppy, they are new and exciting, and demand a lot of attention, and this is expected. This attention has to carry on throughout their lives, even if the kind of attention you give them changes.
Dogs have a shorter lifespan than people, but while they are with us, they truly become part of the family, and the home wouldn't be the same without them.
A dog can change you too
Pets can fill a gap in a home that you didn't even know was there, and change your life for the better.
It is your job to take your dog for a walk, but that exercise extends to you too.
In a society succumbing to metabolic conditions like heart disease and diabetes, it is imperative that we all get more exercise, and a dog can help you to do this.
In addition, dogs have a way of bringing people together, they can help you meet new people and make new friends.
