Maybe what draws us to a puppy is the way it gives and keeps on giving affections, fun and joy. And all it wants in return is a safe place to sleep, food and attention.
But, before you take the puppy home, be sure know what you are taking on. That cute little bundle with the innocent eyes will grow up. That adoring little puppy I fell in love with grew into a huge, beautiful Rottweiler. Remember, when you get a puppy, you sign on for a commitment of between 8 to 16 years.
