We know how it is. You are seriously considering adopting a new puppy but have all kinds of questions. You want a dog that is historically healthy, perhaps something small but not too small, a trainable dog with a smooth coat and attractive colors.
Yet you probably also have questions about longevity.
Perhaps you have a young son or daughter that desperately wants the pooch, but you know for a fact that poor Fido, the dog they want, is not one of the healthier breeds.
