If you can bring your pup to work (dog-friendly office, transport), that would be ideal, since leaving them at home during the work day will leave you with a very hyper puppy to come home to. Also, it'll be a process to get them to learn to pee/poop on puppy pads. However, they're so incredibly cute, constantly pour out love, and you coming home makes their entire day. Take as many photos as possible! The puppy stages whiz right by!

👆🏽yes and yes. Also, as amazing as the first few months are, you'll also be tired and stressed. Give yourself a break when you get frustrated, and don't worry too much.

Don't forget puppy phase is like 2 years!:) And, a lot of pups for adoption are house broken, too.

Oh my god, yes! Please adopt! So many puppies (or even an older dog) are greatly in need of a home. Even if you originally intended to purchase from a breeder, give the shelter(s) a chance. Just walk in and see what happens.

Adopt don't shop!
Get chew toys to fight boredom (and chewing on things that are not toys!)
Get ready for the best love ❤️

Fellow pup parents. Our 6 month old pup scratches or in some cases eats carpet. We moved into a new home and he's already scratched of a handful of carpet fibres.

I'm worried about both him and the state of our carpets.

Any recommendations to fix both please?
