Puppy supplies:
Supplies your puppy may need or want. It is best to have most supplies needed ahead of time. Be sure to order the puppy training kit today so you can get familiar with it to be ready for your puppy. (You don't need exact brands on photos) Collar, leash, crate, and water needed for your trip home.
Nutri-cal/Honey/Karo Syrup
Keep at least one of these products on hand wherever you are with your puppy. If puppy ever feeling down, not wanting to eat, or seems a bit slower or lethargic. Give a glob in roof of mouth. Especially tiny puppies are more prone to sugar drops and any of these 3 things can bring sugar level back up, bring appetite up, and make puppy feel better. (The Honey packs at KFC, are easy to keep in purse in case needed while your out and about) |
Training Kit:
We highly recommend the Happy Puppy Training Kit. It is a great way to quickly and correctly train your puppy. Chart the progress, easy to view and understand with pics so kids can understand too. Totally done with positive training. Learn to read body language and prevent bad behavior issues. Better then any puppy training classes or books I've seen. Click photo to right to learn more. |
Crate
Plastic or wire cage to transport and housebreaking. Small crate or one with divider. Do not get a huge crate, puppy will potty in it then. Ask us, we sometimes have some new ones we get on sales available to sell you. An 18x24" wire crate will fit our adults. Add divider till he/she grows. Airline approved bag if your flying with your puppy. |
Exercise pen/x-pen.
This is a pen to confine puppy to specific area. We use these with the litterbox for ease of training. It keeps your puppy confined to a safe area when your not able to be right there supervising. Wire one like in photo or a child's play yard works too. Works wonderful outside in yard to teach to potty inside it. |
LitterBox/grass pad/potty pad
Most our puppies are litter box trained when you get them. If you want to housebreak to go outside completely, do NOT get a litterbox or potty pad. Use the crate when your not supervising. Litterbox I use a storage container that is fairly tall and cut a door into it. But a cat box will work too. For litter I use Pine Pellet Horse Bedding (sold at feed stores for horses). But the recycled paper litter will work too. Do NOT use regular cat litter. Or you can use potty pads or grass pads in place of litterbox. however puppies will play with the disposable potty pads, washable ones work better. |
Vitamin
We recommend keeping dogs on a daily vitamin. We love the Nuvet ones the best as the ingredients are purest. We extend our guarantee to those who use NuVet by signing up thru our website. CLICK HERE |
ToothBrush. ToothPaste
We highly recommend a tooth brush and tooth paste to maintain puppies teeth. If you don't brush there teeth you will need to take to vet for once or twice a year for dental cleanings at huge expense. So get in the habit to brush teeth right away, even on the baby teeth. If you don't keep tarter under control, they can developed heart issues and gum diseases. |
