Animal love is priceless and dogs make us think about what really matters
The corona crisis brought us bitter misery, but between the smoldering rubble it unleashed, there were still small points of light to be seen. The world more or less came to a standstill and thanks to the free time we saw more clearly than ever how much beautiful animal love brings us. And it taught us that not only is time a precious commodity, but spending time with your dog is invaluable. Are you also looking for a dog, which dog breed suits you best?
During the corona crisis, the number of dogs housed in Dutch shelters has fallen by no less than a third, the National Information Center for Companion Animals (LICG) has investigated. There has also been an increasing trend in the purchase of puppies in recent times.
This may be explained: because when time is not on your heels, you walk less on your toes and there is plenty of time for perhaps the most important thing. Namely, that which we quickly pass by due to our busy lives. Fulfillment! Time is scarce in the western world, but maybe it's just how you deal with it.
Dogs calm us down
Because dogs make us quiet. They literally make us stand still. From running to slow motion and from indifference to amazement. For example, during a walk in the park, a dog will roll imperturbably in the grass or run carelessly after a butterfly. Watch with curiosity a bee flying from flower to flower, because time is something that doesn't matter for a while. That playfulness and the wonder that dogs have by nature, humans can learn something from that.
So we can learn something from dogs, but when you buy a dog, you also check whether the characteristics of the dog suit you and your home situation and your expectations. Of course every dog has its own character, regardless of the characteristics related to the breed. Perhaps what it comes down to is that you shouldn't take those expectations too seriously and simply see a dog as a unique individual – just like every person is.
The different dog breeds
But one dog simply needs more exercise than another, that is breed-related and also partly depends on, for example, the size of the animal. And some dogs are better suited to a family with small children and/or other pets than others. That is why we have set out the most important characteristics of a number of dog breeds for you.
