We have finally reached a point in our lives where we feel ready for a dog - kids are old enough, we have a garden and a bit more time. Dh has had big dogs growing up but as we live in a city we will likely look at smaller dogs. We haven't decided on that yet as I am forward planning! All we know is that it would have to be reasonably small and not require loads of exercise.
We would like a puppy and I have heard they are extremely hard work!! Before committing to a dog I want to make sure I know what I'm doing and that we are 100% committed. Are there any books or websites you could recommend that could give advice? I'm thinking along the lines of the things I read pre baby tbh.
