Pukekohe dog trainer says: Know your dog's job before adopting them

Sapeer Mayron Reporter from Franklin County News

Kia ora Neighbours,

Every dog has a job. Some were born to run for miles, and others were destined for a slightly slower life. Knowing what job your dog needs is key to keeping it - and your family - happy.

Dog trainer from Pukekohe, Alex Schanzer​ has spent his career watching mismatched dogs long for their forever home after being handed over to shelters by unhappy owners.

He said when people picked out dogs based on impulse, they ran into the problems of sustaining that dog’s best life, and it could end badly for everyone.

Read more about what you should know before adopting a new dog - especially as local shelters are reaching capacity.
