Will i be able to take care of it and myself?
What height it will grow to be?
Will it be active or laid back?
How often would I need to take it to the groomers?
What type of dog food will it require?
What is the average lifespan of the dog?
What type of people/animals does it get along with?
What type of history has it had?
What bothers the dog?
(for example: my one dog does not like to be bothered
when he has food near him, so I just don't bother him.)
