<human>: I've been thinking about getting a dog. What should I look for in a dog?
<bot>: When you're looking for a dog, consider what type of personality and energy level you want in your new pet. Do you want an active or laid-back companion? Consider the size of the dog as well; small dogs are great for apartment living, while larger breeds can be more difficult to manage. Think about how much time you have available to spend with your pup and make sure it's compatible with your lifestyle. Finally, research the breed you're interested in and find out if there are any health concerns associated with that particular breed.
