What Breed?
Are you looking to get a dog but are unsure of which breed may suit you best? Would you like to talk through different breeds and your family lifestyle?
These sessions are there to provide you with information about different breeds that may suit your lifestyle.
Both experienced and novice owners book these sessions. Helen will discuss your preferences and lifestyle to help you with ideas of breeds of dog. If required Helen will then provide you with best ways to find a puppy or rescue, the right questions to ask and what to look for or avoid.
Many people get a puppy because it’s the first puppy they see or they feel sorry for the puppies due to the conditions they are in. If the reason is the latter, the puppies will usually be from situations where their development has not be maximised; many issues can come from this type of environment. If the puppy is brought home as it is the first puppy seen, the breed has often not been thought about and problems will usually arise through this too. Health of the puppy is also usually a problem!
In these sessions Helen will help you feel more confident in finding the most suitable puppy for your household/family.
Many puppies are given to their new homes in poor condition when coming from unsuitable breeders. It is so important to have a well balanced puppy growing up in a stable and positive environment. Early experiences can damage a dog for life.
