If you are thinking of getting a dog you should consider getting a dog from the dog pound or a charity shelter.
You should also consider the amount of care and attention that your new dog is going to need.
Will you be able to walk your dog twice a day to keep it fit and healthy?
Will you have enough money to feed your dog and provide any veterinary treatment it might need?
Will you have enough time to spend with your dog? If your dog is left alone all day he might bark / rip up furniture / dig up your garden.
Do you have the patience to care for your dog and train it in basic obedience?
