    Equipment you will need when taking a puppy home:

 

Your new bundle on joy will need the proper supplies when first bring a little one home. You will need lots of toys for him or her to have something to chew on and play with. Also to help with teething. You will also need puppy pads, collar, leash, bed, food and water bowls and crate (better to get one big enough for him as adult), and a bag of good quality Puppy food.

The big day arrives, and it is off to pick up the new puppy. Coming home will start out with a car ride from the airport if shipping, or our home. Try to keep this from being an overly stressful experience for the pup. The main problem dogs have with car rides usually is not what we humans refer to as motion sickness, but simple anxiety about the vibrations, sounds, and to a lesser degree, the movement. Many dogs that have developed problems with car rides get nervous or even nauseous before the engine is even started. It is important that this first trip not be a bad experience that regresses into a repetitious behavioral pattern.

Before you leave for home, try to get the pup to go to the bathroom so there are no floods or surprises stimulated by all the excitement of the ride. On this first trip home, we break a cardinal rule about traveling with pets. We do not put them in a crate for traveling. Remember, they are small and easy to hold. Rather, we have someone other than the driver hold the puppy in a blanket or towel and talk or in some way try to distract him from the ride. If you have a long way to go and need to stop for the puppy to relieve himself, do not use a highway rest stop. At his young age, the puppy has very little, if any, protection from common dog diseases, and these areas can easily be contaminated with the organisms causing these conditions.

  One of the first things you need to do is get the puppy into a veterinarian for an initial puppy examination. You will want to make sure the puppy is in perfect health. Your puppy will go home with a health record that will list all vaccinations, dewormings and the dates that they were given. It is important that you get your puppy into the vet within the first 6 days of bringing your puppy home. your vet will assist you in getting your pup on a vaccination and deworming schedule, and may also recommend a heart worm and flea and tick preventative plan. It is necessary to keep all records and receipts for all vet visits, our contract requires them otherwise our 1 year puppy health guarantee will be considered null and void.

When you puppy goes home for the first time, he or she may be a little nervous or anxious at first but this will quickly go away with lots

of love and attention. I highly recommend when first bringing a new puppy home to make sure you have a few day to spend with him or her before leaving them home alone. Plan to have a few days set aside before picking up your new pup so that way you will have time to bond with each other and start a schedule. It is always a great idea to get a schedule started for you r new puppy to be on. It will make potty training alot easier process. And you will also have time to get the new little one use to staying in there crate while gone if you decide to use one. It is always a healthy idea to love and play and bond with your new puppy it helps the transition for the puppy being with mother and siblings to perfect strangers. But the more love and attention you provide the easier the process is for the both of you. And before you know it yall will be the best of friends and on your way to a wonderful life together.

Our pups are feed 4 health grain free puppy food from the moment they are old enough to eat. We recommend that when you first bring your pup home to keep him or her on the same diet until you slowly gradually introduce them to a new food. To prevent them to have upset stomachs.(They will receive a bag of food to go home with also) It is recommend to keep a puppy on a good quality  puppy food until 8 month to a year old. Talk with your vet as they can help you with this depending on how quickly your pet grows and matures. We feed our adults Sport mix Wholesomes.

 

We also have a list of other great quality food that we recommend as well that are good to feed.
