Tips to pick the right puppy from the litter

When you've finally decided to spend time, money and patience on raising a puppy — lets also look into how you should ideally choose the right puppy for yourself from the litter.

After you've researched on the different breeds and the one that perfectly fits your lifestyle — now comes the best part, choosing which puppy to pick from the litter.

Just like humans, every puppy too has a different personality and temperament. Therefore, you need to be careful about the one that you end up picking.

Observe
Watch the puppies in the litter without disturbing them. Look to see how each puppy interacts with one another. It can be hard to resist wanting the shy puppy with the big sad eyes. However, you're best to avoid this type of puppy, especially if they are going to be around kids. This kind of puppy tends to show anti-social tendencies and can often bite people or kids out of fear.

Consider his energy level
It's crucial that the puppy you end up choosing has energy levels that match your lifestyle. Try and see the puppies after they've woken up from sleep so they are lively and ready to play.

Reaction to new people
When you walk into their enclosure, look for the one that comes to you first. This shows that the puppy is amiable and is friendly with people. After conducting this test, you know exactly which one to pick up.
