Dog Breeds

Where do you start to choose a dog that is right for you and your family?

There are hundreds of breeds of dogs to choose from these days and they all have something in common. They are loyal, never answer back, are faithfully ready to go for a walk or  chase a stick and are  ‘just happy’ to  be with you.

Owning a pet can have many proven health benefits. Research has shown that adults and children are more relaxed in the presence of a friendly dog and that pet owners suffer less minor health problems such as headaches, backaches, colds and flu, insomnia and general tiredness than non pet owners.

Research has also  found that pet owners have a lower risk of heart attack, and have  lower cholesterol and lower blood pressure.
