⚠️⚠️ SOMEONE HELP ME⚠️⚠️ Choosing the right dog to adopt is a big responsibility that takes some thought and planning. To begin with, there are hundreds of breeds of dogs available to pet owners. They all have the potential to be great pets, but not every breed is right for every person. For example, Veterinarian's Weekly categorizes a Jack Russell terrier as a high-energy breed.

In addition to energy level, pet owners should consider the size of their dog. How could this excerpt from an essay best be revised to clarify meaning and enhance style?
