    Deciding on a dog can be both exciting and perplexing. The one thing we all want to know is how our new dog's personality will reveal itself.

    Some breeds require much more attention than others. A breed's true temperament can also take some time to develop: the boxer's lively and extrovert nature means it takes longer to mature than other breeds.
