Preparing For A New Puppy

If you are planning to get a puppy for the first time

, you will need some tips and advice about how best to prepare for brining your new puppy home. Puppy products are found in pet stores, but it can be confusing and overwhelming trying to pick the right items if you have no experience with owning pets. Getting advice from friends and family can be helpful but always ensure the information they are supplying is relevant for the type of breed you are expecting.

When shopping for your new pet make sure you take into account the size and breed of dog that will be joining your family. This will make a huge impact on the types of new puppy products you will need to buy. For instance if you are getting a large breed dog you will need to consider where the dog will sleep as this will affect the type of dog bed you buy. Also ensuring you get a durable and strong collar and lead for large stronger breed dogs is very important. If you are going to be getting a toy breed, carrier bags, collar charms and hair clips and many other designer dog accessories could be on your shopping list.

Before your pup arrives, its important to decide on the type and quality of diet you will be giving your animal. Asking your vet is always a good place to start when deciding on the appropriate diet for your new pet.

As well as diet there are a number of other important decisions that need to be made and preparations done before you bring your new puppy home and the decisions can often be overwhelming. From deciding whether to use a collar or harness, puppy steps, and bed size. Popping into Le Pawtique or giving us a call to find out exactly what you will need prior to the arrival will help you ensure your puppy has a safe and comfortable environment to come home to.

Once your puppy is home you are going to need to ensure that your puppy is properly groomed. This not only ensures the hygiene in your home but also keeps your puppy healthy and happy. Choosing an appropriate shampoo and conditioner suitable for use on puppies is important. You need to make sure that the product you select is gentle enough that it will not cause allergies or skin irritation and generally puppy specific shampoo is always recommended.

Supplements and vitamins can also help the new addition to your family grow healthy and strong, as they say prevention is always better than cure. There are a few supplements that will help your growing puppy like a pet multi-Vitamin, mineral and amino supplement. Also ensuring that your pet is properly protected from fleas with an appropriate puppy product is vital.

Be sure to have dog treat handy once your pup arrives and ensure they are soft and small enough depending on the size of puppy you are getting. Prepare the area you have allocated to your new pet with its bed, some old newspapers and water.
