Puppy or adult
Do you usually get puppies? Or do you like adult dogs? I have had a puppy once. The other dogs where adults.

I'd prefer to get a puppy. Watching them grow is part of the fun. It also allows you to become more attached to your pet because of the time you would be spending with them during their growing years.

I had my dog when she was about 8 months old. I was really happy that my friend gave her to my family.

I like getting a dog as a puppy. That way, I can see it grow up and mature. I wouldn't feel the same connection with an adult dog.

I like puppies because they are more playful and then you see them grow into adults. I don't like getting adult dogs because most of them are already kind of old and don't play much,

I'd prefer a puppy so that I would be able to teach it some tricks. It's also a great feeling being able to watch your pet grow up.

My dad has a purebred that he breeds sometimes and in some litters we keep one of the puppies.

RE: Puppy or adult
If you have kids then it is best to go for a puppy, to get them used to each other, I would only go for an adult dog if I knew the owner and the nature. It is just not worth the risk to children taking in a dog which you do not have any background for. That’s if you have kids.

RE: Puppy or adult
Well before I grew up and learned alot of the older dogs in pet stores or shelters or even pound was usually overlooked cause most people want puppies. I would have said puppies. But I would definitely adopt an older doggie.
