I have never went with the dog trend. I choose the breeds I have because I love their characteristics, personalities and size of them. The breed could be the most unpopular breed but if it is what I am looking for, I wouldn't hestitate to get it just because it is not a popular breed nor would I get a dog because it is a popular breed at the time. I loved cockers way before Lady and the Tramp came out. My whole family grew up with them and I love the breed because they are such great dogs not because they were popular.
It is sad that so many people follow the dog trend. They get a dog that is a popular breed and then when it is not so popular or special, they get rid of the dog. People see celebreties with a certain breed so they go right out and buy the dog knowing little to nothing about the breed all because a celebrity has it. It is so sad because the dogs end are the ones that end up suffering. I just wish people would be more sensible. |
