How geography affects what kinds of dog people own

Well geography has a huge affect on the pets people own. For example, in areas of the globe that have a cold climate, there are certain breeds of dogs that are better suited to cope with the freezing weather. A small dog such as a Chiuahaha is not suited to cold climates as they hate the cold. Dogs with thick coats tend to be better at living in snowy and icy conditions. Examples of such dogs are Siberian Huskies, golden retrievers, Saint Bernards (picture), and bearded collies. Image: http://www.best-dog-photos.com/images/Saint-Bernard.jpg

Why do people have pets

People keep pets for enjoyment and companionship, they treat their pet like another family member. When choosing a pet, people usually go for one that is playful, loyal, loving and friendly. You might also choose an animal that can protect or guard your property. Sometimes a pet is used for a companion for someone that is lonely and needs something to love. Pets can also be used to help humans, eg therapy animals or Guide dogs for the blind.
