Know about your particular dog breed before choosing your pet

There are lots of loving puppies and dogs out there in dire need of good homes. The ASPCA and numerous other pet adoption and pet care centers provide lots of choice companions. While the dogs may not be pure bred, or puppies you will be able to get information about their history and heritage (breed or breed mixture), at least as much information as the pet care center has available.

Dog breed and breed information can be found online. I recommend looking at the American Kennel Club's website as it lists breeds according to their group which is a great place to start.

The dog lineage groups are:

  • Sporting group
  • Hound group
  • Herding group
  • Working group
  • Non-sporting group
  • Toy group
  • Terrier group

Each group will than include specific dogs, like Maltese and Pug in the Toy group. You will get a clue that if, for example, you are looking more for a low keyed lapdog, choosing a pooch from the herding group like a German Shepherd isn't a good choice.

Addressing your family's lifestyle needs before choosing your new family pet will ensure a happy match for all of you. For more information about "dog breed," head to the library or bookstore. A lot has been written on this topic.
