I want to get a dog and can't decide on a breed!  I'm thinking bassett hound or collie - what do you think?
You can breed one to have specific physical attributes.
That's awesome!  What kind of attributes?
Well that all depends if you want it to be large or small in size, or if you want it to be a certain color.
I like brown and white dogs that are medium in size, with a good temperament.  Can I breed one like that?
Sure, there is no limit when it comes to "man's best friend".
How long do dogs usually live?  I don't want to get too attached to it if it's going to up and die in 2 years!
That all depends on your dogs health. You want to take them to the vet so they can get checked for infectious diseases.
I probably should look into dog trainers because I don't have time for stuff like that - I'd rather someone did it for me!
Dog training
Dog training is the application of behavior analysis which uses the environmental events of antecedents and consequences to modify the behavior of a dog, either for it to assist in specific activities or undertake particular tasks, or for it to participate effectively in contemporary domestic life. While training dogs for specific roles dates back to Roman times at least, the training of dogs to be compatible household pets developed with suburbanization in the 1950s.
A dog learns from interactions it has with its environment. This can be through classical conditioning
bed and it's my intention that this will be the last time I'll ever do those songs completely, because if I want to make a break from what I've done up until now, I've got to make it concise and not have it as a habit to drop back into. It's so easy to kind of keep going on and saying, well, you can rely on those songs, you can rely on that to have a career or something, and I'm not sure I want that.
