Dog Selection Services
It is all too common for people to fall in love with the first dog they see. Unfortunately, this doesn’t always result in an ideal relationship. Just like people, each dog has their own personality and set of strengths and weaknesses. The dog you choose should fit well with your personality and family dynamics.
Whether you are looking to adopt a rescue or get a puppy from a breeder, Cavalletto Canine can guide you. We’ll walk you through the complete selection process and help you find the right pet for your lifestyle.
