What do you think the biggest mistake you've made with a dog; or what's the biggest mistakes people (in general) make with a dog? Here's my list:
In general:
1. Not researching care of or the breed of dog before buying.
2. Buying a dog from a petshop.
3. Not doing early training for the puppy.
4. Getting a puppy during the holiday or "surprising" someone.
5. Feeding the dog before you eat.
For me personally:
As much as I love Keno (our lab), I really didn't know how much labs shed! DH had a lab/setter cross (longhair) and I really didn't like all the hair...figured a shorthair dog would be less shedding.
Next dog we get is gonna have some poodle or wire-hair terrier in it so there is less shedding!
