[quote=Anonymous]Ask yourself: -Are you ready to clean up pee and poo accidents in your house? There will be many as you train the puppy. -Are you ready for your days and nights to revolve around the puppy for a few (or several) weeks? -Are you ready for barking? The quantity depends on the puppy. -Are you ready to spend a lot of time training the puppy? Not just house breaking but all house rules: which rooms are ok, which objects are ok to play with and chew, etc. Then as the puppy is a bit older, you'll need to teach basic commands, how to walk on a leash. -What will your plan be when your family goes on vacation? Day trips? -Are you ready to welcome a new member of the family who will be with you for several years? One of our dogs lived until the age of 16. Dogs are wonderful but they are a lot of work as puppies and as they age. [/quote]
