Never be a dog owner if you're not willing to commit, to anything for that matter. I kid you not, having a dog is just as the same as having a child. No joke.

I took in my german shepherd, Hunter, when he was 5 weeks which is not the recommended age to retrieve so do inform yourself with the acquired age that is appropriate.

Reason I had to take him in so early was because the owners simply did not want to keep the puppies any longer and the puppies were kept outside in a kin and due to the cold weather conditions. But I do say one thing, that Hunter is one firecracker. So much energy for such a little size and he will only get more energized and much more bigger.

Dogs in general need a lot of attention and of course lots of love. Yes, I know my Hunter feels the love I give him. I can't stress enough the importance of bonding with our beloved pets. Their lives are short lived yet their lives revolve solemnly on us and that is a blessing.
