Question I want to own a dog

But there are so many different kinds of breed. Any recommendation on which one should I keep for first-timer ? Thanks!

I'm thinking of getting a shih tzu or a maltese but I heard it's hard to tame their furs. Have to bring them often for grooming. I prefer a dog that is active, not much fur.

Jack Russell?

But seriously consider the option of rearing a dog or any pet.

Try asking yourself, how much time can you actually afford.

Is it just a urge?

Try to plan far ahead.

Kel

Jack russell is too naughty. I have the time and any other things that are necessary that's why I'm planning to have a dog as a companionship.

JRTs seem to be what u are looking for.. short fur, and they are FREAKING active.. hahaha..! i have 2 JRTs at home.. love them loads! ^^

but aiya, just saw ur reply.. hmm.. actually all dogs can be naughty, not just JRTs.. it really depends on how u train them lor.. my JRTs are pretty obedient.. but only to selected ppl.. lolx!

my friend used to own a JRT. and I'm afraid of this kind of dog, cos I used to have a chick and I brought it to my fren's house one day. Her JRT bit my chick! And that poor chick died in his mouth

My cousin says Miniature Schnauzer is good cos it's always alert and is good to guard the house and easily tame. I was thinking of taking this or Chihuahua cos of the size. I can easily carry a chihuahua around with me.
