I’m sure I’m missing a thousand things but those are the things that come to mind. Enjoy! Take so many videos! Puppy stage is hard but they grow up so fast 🥰

Would add dog bed for crate & a second same dog bed for living room/office or where you’ll hangout most so they have a comfy spot! Also baby gate, helps to make your apartment/house smaller for them when you first get home so they’re not overwhelmed, then you can introduce 1-2 new rooms at a time :)

A pitcher with a bottle of hydrogen peroxide, a box of baking soda, a 1/4 cup measuring cup, and a small bottle of dawn dish detergent. Print out the recipe for what to do when your dog gets sprayed by a skunk, you don’t want to have to figure it out at the time.

Yes, accompanied by terrible flashbacks…

Agree with the above …

Also puppy food 😊. If you’re switching from the cirrrnt food you’ll need to do it gradually.

Find a vet to do a full checkup early. Some have a puppy plan for all the preventatives.

Familiarize yourself with the vaccine schedules.

Think about how you’ll do puppy training (self or trainer) and socialization (typically wait until after 4 months when fully vaccinated).

By the way, buy all this stuff at Walmart/target/Amazon/chewy - stores like Petco and Petsmart are the most expensive. You really need a leash, collar, food and water bowls and kennel on day 1. The rest you can get in the coming days/weeks/as needed.

Okay soooo I have an adult 8 year old Maltese. I have tried everything from Farmers dog to Caesar. Mixing wet and dry...putting toppers on. I kinda got him to eat out of my hand. But I have to put bland chicken on top just to get him to come near it. I have tried the leave food down for 20 minutes then pick it up....he just won't eat. I'm gonna try Pet Plate subscription to see if that works. Hopefully it does.

Any pet owners have any suggestions. I'm a newbie. I've only had my Ben since May.
