07.08.2023 19:45
It is fair to note that keeping a dog is a very complex and responsible process, so not everyone may be ready for it.
So before you get a pet, there are some important things to think about.
What are we talking about?
Sufficient space
Sometimes we think that dogs don't need that much space. However, this is only true if you find ways to exercise your pet outside the home.
In most cases, a dog needs the opportunity to run, play, jump. In a private home, this is easier to do.
If you are determined to have a dog in an apartment, then walk your pet more.
Finance
Experts note that keeping a dog requires significant financial investment. First of all, it is worth remembering that quality food for your pet costs a lot. You will also have to periodically purchase vitamin complexes.
Don't forget about vaccinations and treatment if needed. Health issues can be very expensive.
You also need to buy toys, nice little things and tasty treats for the animal from time to time. Therefore, calculate your financial capabilities.
Free time
Even small breed dogs need attention from their owners. You need to not only walk and exercise the animal, but also allocate time for training and spending time together playing games.
Therefore, a dog as a pet is unlikely to be suitable for a person who has little free time.
