Advice required
Hi,
I am new to forums, so please take it easy...
Both my wife and I grew up with dogs as pets, and now having two boys, 9 & 6 yrs old, it is time to get a dog of our own. We are looking for a Small - Medium sized dog as we do not have space for a big dog. And as I will be looking after the dog during the day, I also do not want a little dog either. We do not mind much about the pedigree of the dog, as long as it is healthy.
Wanting to do the right thing, we are considering rehoming a dog. This of course comes with complications as we would like our boys to start of with a puppy as it is their first dog, and the journey with a pup for two small boys will be a fantastic experience which we do not wish to deny them.
Any advice at this point would be greatly appreciated. Such as things to consider, where to find a dog etc. We are based in the Dunmow (CM) area, so it would help if any particular organisations are relevant to this area if possible.
