Choose The Right Puppy For You  w/t (2 x 60′) – Choosing the wrong dog is considered one of the biggest issues in dog welfare in the UK, according to veterinary professionals. Tens of thousands of dogs are relinquished to rescue centres every year, and one study has found that less than 10 per cent of their owners had sought any advice at all before getting a dog. But, with over 200 recognised breeds of dog in the UK, (plus a multitude of crossbreeds), all of them with different characteristics and needs, it can be a difficult choice to get right.

This show is a valuable guide to making that life-changing decision, and will feature a wealth of advice from the UK’s leading canine experts.

The series, presented by Kate Humble and featuring dog trainer and behaviourist Louise Glazebrook, will follow several households as they discover everything they need to know about different breeds of dog, including which lifestyles and domestic environments they’re best suited to, and how to care for them. The households might already have what they think is their perfect dog in mind – but are they right? Over the course of the two episodes, they’ll have their expectations challenged as they experience all aspects of dog ownership – before they finally bring their chosen puppy or dog home.

Alongside these stories, the series will also reveal the science behind breed differences, and how we have a better understanding than ever before about how to help dogs integrate into modern life – ensuring happy, healthy pet dogs and their families.
