About the Book

Owning a dog brings significant emotional and financial costs that should be recognized at the outset. Unfortunately many well meaning parents make spur-of-the-moment decisions when purchasing a dog to please the children. This often results in frustration for the family and unwanted pets that end up in humane societies or worse. Picking Your Kid's Dog addresses the concerns and positives of dog ownership and then uniquely carries you through a selection process aimed at finding the best breed for your particular family situation. Family case examples are proved to help you develop your own "ideal dog" profile using a simple format. The authority for breeds presented comes directly from research conducted by the author with professional breeders.
