Consider an ordinary weekday
Think about time at home, work hours, space, travel and who will help. Discuss the daily responsibilities with everyone in the household.
Plan the practical support
Identify a veterinarian and consider how you would arrange transport, care while away and ongoing expenses. Ask the adoption organisation or current caregiver about the individual animal.
Look beyond a breed label
Breed information is a starting point for questions, not a guarantee of personality or suitability. Get to know the individual pet and seek relevant professional guidance.
