People want a dog for all sorts of reasons, but don’t want to think so much about the cost of owning a dog. Some want dogs for companionship, to complete their family or to encourage a healthy lifestyle.

It would be naive at best to focus purely on the Hallmark version of dog ownership when considering bringing any pet – let alone one of the more high maintenance dog breeds – into your life.
