dog owners i have a questions about getting a puppy from a shelter?

Nice to see someone with so much fore thought before getting a dog :D. I have a blog that will guide you through getting a pup and its first nights and training. See http://www.teachingpuppies.com/To see if you are ready for a dog and general infohttp://www.teachingpuppies.com/am-i-ready-for-a-new-puppyPicking a pup out of a litter and breeder tips http://www.teachingpuppies.com/picking-the-perfect-puppyBringing him/her home (getting your house ready)http://www.teachingpuppies.com/bringing-your-new-puppy-homeTo avoid the crying at night http://www.teachingpuppies.com/my-puppies-first-nightThe ever important housetraining! http://www.teachingpuppies.com/8-easy-steps-to-housetrain-your-puppy

If you want a puppy, then the shelter will not neuter him, as they can only be neutered or spayed after they are six months old. Some shelters would give you a voucher for your vet though to get him neutered when he's old enough (whether you should accept that, seeing that shelters always have money trouble is a different question). If you get an older dog they will be neutered,as the shelters do that with every dog they receive.With most breeds there is nt much character difference between boys or girls; I personally have a boy at the moment, but I used to have a girl. Not much difference there, you can get what you want.
