Cute and cuddly and oh-so-sweet, puppies are eternally appealing. And while a darling puppy might seem like the perfect gift choice for your child, remember that many such presents end up at animal shelters.

“Be absolutely certain the gift recipient wants a puppy or a dog,” Liam Crow, CEO and master dog behavioral therapist, Bark Busters USA. “A pup is not some battery-operated toy you can play with, then store away in the closet.”

If someone on your gift list wants a dog, consider giving a gift certificate for one instead. Wrap a can of dog food or a fancy collar and include a note saying a puppy (or dog) of the recipient’s choice comes with the gift. More.
