If you are looking at adding a special four-legged friend to your family this holiday, you may want to wait until the new year before you start looking. A dog could be a good addition to a home, but with the hustle and bustle of the holiday season, you may want to wait until things calm down so you can spend more time helping them adjust to a new home. Plus, making the whole family part of the process of getting a new dog is a good way to make sure you find the right one for your home. Finding a rescue at a local shelter could be a good place to start.
