I base getting a dog on their personality, grooming requirements, size, etc. You can somewhat judge what a dog of a certain breed will be like, but, as others have said, it's not always the case. Each dog is unique! However the known characteristics of the breed should always be taken into consideration.

I will just say that it's not likely I will ever get a dog that needs a haircut. Nor will I get a dog that has excessively thick and long fur.

It's not likely that I would get an extremely large/giant breed or an extremely small breed.

It's most likely I will only get more siberian huskies but hey I'm not crossing out all other breeds, you never know!
