House Sitting

Never assume, if you are house sitting someone else's dog, that the dog will be fine without direct supervision. You don't know the dog well enough, it's habits, or even the hazards about your friend's home. If something looks unsafe, then it probably is a risk to the dog.

Not All Breeds Are Pets


Not all dog breeds are pet material. Many dog breeds are still being bred to perform services for man. They are specialists. If you get one of these breeds, you will be very unhappy unless you accept your dog's propensities and find appropriate outlets for your dog's temperament. This is where a good dog trainer can help you, from choosing the right breed for you, to helping you work with the dog you have successfully.
