Lifecycle Model

This model shows the amount of attention people give to their dog throghout the dog's life. When people first get a puppy they spend a lot of time playing and give it a lot of attention. Then as the puppy grows it becomes a regular member of the family. Finally, in its older age, the dog usually needs more care and attention.
