This depends what type of lifestyle you live and where you live.
For example a collie probably couldn't live in a flat if you are out for all hours of the day.

You should take the time to research the species or breed/crossbreed you are adopting/purchasing well before bringing them home, so that you are positive your choice of companion animal will be appropriate for your lifestyle and you are well prepared for their arrival.
The average lifespan of dogs and cats is around 12 years, with some dogs and cats living until 15 or even 20 years of age, so it’s a long-term commitment. While puppies and kittens are irresistibly adorable, you will need to be prepared to provide for an adult animal too and, in the case of some dogs, a much larger animal with considerable exercise requirements and a sizeable appetite.
