My Female Pitbull-Boxer had nine puppies; I gave away six of them and kept three—a sweet female black Lab and two male Mastiffs; I thought I was going to bond with the one male (Kilo), but it happened with the other one (Chico) instead! It’s cool because I love Chico VERY much!!! It turns out that he is also the LEADER of the pack! I would like to know how the BONDING between us happened! Any ideas??? Gracias!
If you fell in love with him you must of gotten to know him the best, By paying more attention to him you bonded to him and he bonded to you. Dogs love people too.

I want to buy a dog, but i don’t know what breed to choose for a first time owner.
There’s no specific dog that is suitable for a first time dog owner. I have been a dog owner for about 8 years and I cannot say how adorable and precious they are. Any dogs match anybody if you are ready to take care of them. For me, my first dog was a Beagle. It was for my sister’s birthday present. He was such an adorable, little puppy. We named him Lu. However, he died a few days later after showing unusual symptoms. This made me depressed for a few months till we got a new dog breed, a Maltese. Honestly, I have to say there aren’t any dog breeds that match a particular type of person. Just show affection towards them. Any dogs react to that, and if you do have one in mind, just choose that. It always doesn’t have to be the smarter, better-looking, or a loyal one. It depends on what dog breed you like.

is it expensive to have a dog like a beagle? i ask my mom to get a dog but she says its expensive i dont know if thats rue so is it?…
Any dog is expensive. Unlike people, the insurance you can get for pets is CRAP. You have to worry about the initial visit, shots, and tests. Then there is the spay/neuter. Then you have the monthly maintainence of food, flea medicine, heart worm medicine, and wormer. Don’t forget the toys, dog house/kennel, as well as other accessories. Then you have your time that you invest in training (which also costs money), and taking the dog for walks, etc. On average, for my 2 dogs and 1 cat I spend about $250 every other month on food, medication, and toys. then there are the vet bills, which my last one was $600 for a skin infection on a dog that I adopted who came to me infested with fleas and sick. Your mom is right, they are expensive. People don’t realize this when they are looking at the short term.
