4. If your girlfriend is the outdoorsy type, she’s a Siberian Husky

Siberian Huskies aren’t normally recommended to first time dog owners. Though affectionate and intelligent, they’re notoriously difficult to discipline and need obedience training early on in their life. These dogs have a quench for action and wanderlust, very outdoorsy and love to travel. However, huskies are also bonafide escape artists. They will escape their enclosure and wander off, if given the chance. Though challenging, Siberian Huskies will shower your life with exciting adventures.

3. If your girlfriend is the sporty and adventurous type, she’s a Labrador Retriever

Labrador Retrievers are registered as the American Kennel Club’s number one breed, and it’s not surprising. They’re very warm, good-natured and compassionate. Think about it, when you picture a Labrador Retriever, an image of a dog lovingly by his owner’s side immediately pops up. The Labrador is like your quirky, sporty, fun-loving girlfriend.

They’re game for anything and ready for any active adventure. Be it going on a dip on the beach or going for a hike, they’ll happily go as long as you’re with them. TLDR; Labs are AWESOME.

But, in all seriousness, if you’re thinking of getting a dog, consider adopting one. There’s a high chance that the dog you’re buying from pet stores came from a puppy mill, a factory-style breeding facility where dogs are kept and bred under squalid conditions. It’s one way to fight puppy mills and proudly wave the middle finger at them. Adopting will also ensure that you save a dog’s life and change your new best friend’s life as you know it.
