INPUT ARTICLE: Article: If you plan to get a puppy, ask yourself and your family some questions. Are you all ready to make a commitment? Puppies are a lot of work to train properly. There is housetraining, giving them exercise, teaching them manners, and how to get along with other animals and humans.  During the first six months of a puppy’s life it needs constant attention to make it into a great adult dog that is a joy to be around. Do you have enough time on your hands for a dog? Will someone be home most of the day during these first six months to take the puppy out for potty and play breaks every couple of hours? If not, rethink bringing a puppy into your home.  Remember, taking care of a young puppy is a full-time job. Consider adopting an older dog instead of a puppy if you don't have enough time to commit to a puppy. Older dogs, while taking some time to incorporate into the family, do not take the 24 hour care that a new puppy does. It cannot be stressed enough how important regular daily exercise is to a young puppy. It's the best way to keep your dog calm and it allows you to bond with your dog at the same time. You don't want a puppy bounding all around the house because it doesn't get enough exercise. While there aren’t any hard and fast rules as to amount of exercise here are some guidelines:   Puppies younger than two months of age can get their exercise running around the house. From two to three months of age they should have 4-5 short play sessions or walks (around 10 minutes) outside a day. From three to four months this can be increased to 15 minutes. From four to six months they can have 20 minutes of exercise three times a day. After six months the time can gradually be increased. This is all “structured” play time with family members—they will fill in the rest of their time with play with toys, etc.  There are many ways you can give your dog the exercise that it needs. You can play ball with it in your backyard or at a dog park. If you like to go for morning runs, your adult dog (older than 18 months) can come with you. Keep in mind that running or jogging for sustained time (longer than 20 minutes) is too much for dogs under 18 months, as their joints and bones are still forming. Walking two or three (or more) times a day is a better option for young (and elderly) dogs. Depending on your puppy's breed, size, and age, the amount of exercise needed will vary. Lack of exercise could lead to aggression later on in the dog's life when it takes its frustration out in negative ways. A bored dog can be a destructive dog and pick up bad habits right away. You should strive to form a strong bond of love and affection between you and your dog. Your bond will strengthen the relationship and it will help your puppy or dog be happier and balanced.   Give your dog as much affection and love as you want! The love you give your dog, and the love you receive in return, is the best part of having a dog. Give your dog affection and love consistently, but do not reward it with praise or affection if it does something that it is not supposed to do. Instead, give it lavishly when it performs a desired behavior. Even a small step in the right direction deserves praise.  A little food reward immediately after the desired behavior will also work wonders in reinforcing good behavior and a strong bond. Dogs are great to have and they love and deserve a calm, assertive human to play with. Remember, your dog won't be a puppy forever, so while it is make the most of it!  Get your family involved. They are part of the “pack” in your puppy’s mind. Make sure that all members of the family play with the puppy. You could even have a set time every day when the whole family plays with the pup.

SUMMARY: Decide whether you have the time to raise a well-balanced puppy. Remember that exercise is key. Bond with your puppy. Have fun with your puppy!
