Example text

Coats were developed to suit the sort of work the breed does. A German Shorthaired Pointer’s coat is short because he works in fields that contain burrs and thorns. Labrador and Golden Retrievers bring back game downed by the hunter, often in the cold water, so their double coats insulate them from freezing water and temperatures. Think about how much time you are willing to spend grooming your dog. Then consult with the breeder about what is required for proper coat maintenance, including what equipment you will need to buy.

Some dogs may develop a lifelong problem such as epilepsy, which requires drugs to keep seizures to a minimum, or diabetes, which requires insulin shots. These drugs can be expensive, so you need to know whether your finances can stretch to pay for daily medications that would have to be given to the dog for the rest of his life. ” If the thought of an expensive health problem that requires diagnostic work or surgery scares you, be sure to choose a breed that is known to be generally healthy. On the other hand, one of the most vet-intensive of all breeds is the English Bulldog, which is prone to cherry eye, soft palate problems, and various other diseases.

While each dog is an individual and each dog’s circumstances are different, there are specific health problems that lurk in the gene pools of certain breeds. This doesn’t mean every dog of that breed will have that health problem, but it does mean the dog is more likely to have them.
