Here Are Some Helpful Tips For Your New Puppy!
Choosing a Puppy. Not all puppies fit all lifestyles, so choose carefully.
Meal Time. Good nutrition is vital to a growing puppy. Puppies grow rapidly and should have a premium food that will satisfy all their nutritional needs. Your puppys breed should also be taken into consideration when choosing food.
Training. Puppies thrive on love and will respond better to kindness than to punishment. No matter what youre trying to teach your puppy, be patient, and reward good behavior. Always be consistent so as not to confuse your puppy.
Housebreaking. Housebreaking your puppy takes time and patience. A training crate will speed up the process.
Chewing. Puppies love to chew on things. Giving your puppy an old shoe or sock is not a good idea. This will encourage chewing on your new shoes and socks. Provide your puppy with a rawhide or nylon bone. These will not only satisfy your puppys need to chew, but will help keep his or her teeth clean. Be sure your puppy has a variety of toys to keep him busy.
Bathing and Grooming. Your puppy will need an occasional bath. Use tearless dog shampoo and dry your puppy quickly to prevent it from getting chilled. Brushing your puppy regularly will lessen the effects of shedding and will provide your puppy with much loved attention.
