Man is a socialized creature and he always needs someone to be around: family, friends or pets. The most popular pet in 2022 is the dog. For dog owners, their animals are real family members, because, like people, they have their own character and behavioral characteristics. They are loyal, devoted, smart friends and can keep company in games, on a walk, on a trip, while playing sports. At the same time, they also perform a number of useful functions: protector, hunting assistant, guide, companion and many others.
How to choose "your" dog
However, one decision to get a dog is not enough, first you need to answer yourself a few questions:
- What is a dog for? Will she protect the house or will she be a friend for children, and perhaps brighten up the loneliness of an elderly relative? So, for example, in order to protect the house, it is worth taking a closer look at Shepherd Dogs, Rottweilers, Newfoundlands, Moscow Watchdogs or Terriers, and a Japanese Spitz or Papillon is perfect as a companion for an elderly person.
- The conditions of detention and the level of activity of the owner, the presence of small children and other animals in the family. For example, for single people and families with children living in city apartments, decorative breeds of dogs are ideal: corgi, spitz, papillons, for people leading an active lifestyle - huskies, samoyeds.
After a person has decided on a breed suitable for himself, the question arises before him: "where to buy an animal." The Internet is replete with ads for the sale of dogs, while their price differs significantly from each other.
The most preferred option is a cattery rather than a private individual. There is a wide variety of nurseries on the market today. Let's find out what you should pay attention to when choosing.
A nursery is an institution that breeds animals for their further trade. The owner of the kennel performs all the necessary manipulations with the puppy so that the potential buyer receives an already “ready-made dog”: he draws up a veterinary passport, a pedigree, carries out primary vaccination and chipping. When purchasing a puppy in a kennel, you can be sure that the animal is healthy and all the documents that may be needed throughout its life are ready for it.
Criteria for choosing a dog kennel
- Specialization.
Almost every kennel is engaged in breeding certain breeds of dogs. It can be either a mono-kennel, in which animals of one breed are offered for sale, or a diverse one, specializing, for example, in decorative or guard dogs.
- The number of dogs kept in the institution, the quality of their content.
It is worth noting that the more dogs are kept in the kennel, the less attention is paid to them by breeders. It is also believed that puppies that were kept at home at the time of sale are more socialized than those that were in an aviary.
- The presence of registration in the Russian cynological or international cynological federation (RFC, FCI).
Having registration at the kennel gives an additional guarantee that breeders are serious about breeding dogs, and all documents they have are drawn up in accordance with international requirements.
- The number of titles and awards for animals, their participation in exhibitions.
