I've been thinking about getting a dog. What should I look for in a dog?

When looking at dogs, consider the size of the breed and its energy level. Smaller breeds tend to be more energetic and require more exercise than larger breeds. Also consider the type of coat your dog has. Long-haired breeds need regular grooming while short-haired breeds are easier to keep clean. Consider if you want an active or laid back dog that will fit into your lifestyle. Lastly, think about how much time you have to dedicate to training and caregiving.
