If you planning to get a Rottweiler puppy or any other breed for Christmas , please remember puppy is not only there till festive period ends its a decision to become responsible for life many years to come.But if you really really want to be a responsible, caring person Don't ask for a puppy for Christmas.

Before we talk about puppies, please consider giving a home to a dog who doesn't have one. There are so many dogs of all sizes who are homeless and waiting in shelters for someone to take them home

If you want to start out the right way with your new pup, then wait until after Christmas.
That's the best time.Or you can get your pup before the holidays arrive, say in October or early November.Below are five really good reasons why it's best to wait just a little while for your new dog.

1. During the Christmas holidays everyone is very busy. Lots of people come over. A new puppy might be frightened by all of the new people, the noise, and even the smells. Just think about yourself. Are there places that scared you, the first time you went there?
2. You will probably visit relatives and friends more than usual during the holidays. Your new dog would be lonely when you are gone. Where will you put him? What will he do while you're gone?Remember your home is a strange, new place for a young dog. This may be the first time he is away from his brothers and sisters.
3. When a puppy is very young, he learns every time something happens to him. That's why it's important that your dog experience good things in his new home. Stress and loneliness can lead to behavior problems that won't be very easy to fix
4. Your new puppy will need lots of extra care and attention no matter when you bring him home. Be sure you and your family have the time and energy to spend time with him for feeding, grooming, petting, walking, and training.
5. Your family should share the experience of choosing a new dog. Make sure everyone in your family feels comfortable with and likes the dog as much as everyone else. Don't surprise a family member with a puppy. It's best to choose the dog you want with your whole family.
