HOW TO CHOOSE YOUR PET DOG

     When you decide to get a pet dog there is always a concern about how to choose a perfect pet for your family. Here are some of the suggestions for choosing a right pet dog.
     Select your new dog which suits your family , lifestyle and living situation. Consider its temperament, size and coat as well. Consult your veterinarian before you acquire a pet of any kind.

BREED SELECTION.
      The recognized breeds are grouped into 7 categories, Hound, Working, Terrier, Toy breeds,  Sporting,  Non-sporting and Herding breeds.
       India is a tropical country with hot weather most of the year round with short duration of winters and monsoons.Keeping the climatic conditions in mind the dog breeds which suits well for Indian climate must be preferred.Your vet and dog shows are excellent sources of information about individual breed characteristics.
       Opting a puppy born of pedigreed and kennel club registered parents is a wise decision as you get to know the ultimate size, shape and temperament of the dog.
       While buying a registered puppy, collect the registration certificate, microchip, transfer of registration form duly signed by the breeder, which is issued by the kennel club of India KCI with its headquarters at Chennai.

SELECTING A PUPPY.
          6 to 10 wks is considered an ideal age to acquaint a puppy with its new home. Select a puppy that is active, friendly and inquisitive. While buying the puppy enquire the breeder about the details of vaccination and de worming done ,so that it will be useful for you to continue it. Before bringing home your puppy, his place of living should be decided in advance.The place should be comfortable in summer & winter months. The first time he arrives home, make him feel comfortable. It is the start of the relationship.
