How to choose a good dog?

1, reasonable.

First of all, determine whether you really like this variety show, whether you know enough about its advantages and disadvantages, whether you can put up with its shortcomings and stay with him all your life, not on impulse. Moreover, when buying a dog, you must not blindly trust the dog seller or the people next to you. Keep your own dog, not others.

2. health.

The health of puppies is a necessary guarantee. Besides common diseases, remember to check your puppy's hearing, sight and smell.

3. bloodline.

It is best to find out more than three generations of ancestor dogs, and at least see the photos of 10 to 12 of these dogs. Parents and grandparents must finish reading them. Dog atavism is very common.

4. Bone mass and bone structure.

This is the most important thing for any dog breed. The fur quality and ear shape can be changed, but the bone mass and bone structure cannot be artificially optimized. Dogs must have enough bone mass to be beautiful when they grow up. Although we can't completely measure the bone structure by the standard of adult dogs, we can make a calm and rational judgment according to our own knowledge. As for the bone structure, it takes enough time to understand the level of this breed. In addition, the skeletal structure completely controls and affects the gait of dogs, and gait is very important.

5. Physiological characteristics of varieties.

Including the shape of the head, body, limbs and tail, see the variety standard for details.

6. Personality.

The dog's personality is very important. Many times, the dog's personality and your personality preferences determine whether he can integrate into your life and family. There is a description of the standard personality of each breed in the standard of each dog breed, which can be roughly seen when puppies are born. This standard is only a general description. Every dog of the same breed has a different personality, so please be careful.

7. fur and color.

In order to meet the visual requirements, most people put this in the first place, which is an inevitable mistake for beginners. Except for a few varieties with special requirements, most varieties have very low requirements for fur and color.
