I know I can just go and buy a dog, but what do I need to think about, learn and do before we get a family dog?
I've always been a cat person, never understood dogs or their appeal. But then I've met a couple of dogs (Cavapoos) who have completely charmed the socks off us and it's starting to look attractive. We have two cats and dc are 7, 12 and 14.
I've read some of the puppy threads and heard from friends that it's like having a baby in the house 😬
What else should we consider?
