How to prepare for a new puppy?

The arrival of a puppy at home is always a source of happiness, but first you must prepare your home and know how to prepare for the new event.

The first few days are very important for you and your pet, as it can mark your future relationship.

Things to keep in mind

Prepare the house: Do not have things in sight that can bite or break.

Organize departure times: After the 3 months that all his vaccines have been given, we can now take him out for a walk. When they are puppies it is advisable to take them out between 3 and 5 times a day, and if they are adults 2 to 4 times a day. When they are puppies and relieve themselves on the street, we must reward them with pet treats, or caresses, so that they get used to doing so on the street and not at home.

Feeders and drinkers: Use steel, because if they are plastic they can have it like a toy and break it.

Microchip: The first thing we must put on our pet is the microchip so that it is properly identified.

Toys: When they are so little they have to have toys and teethers to prevent them from destroying something at home.

Feeding: Food is very important, therefore good quality food is recommended. If he was taking another brand before, we continue to give him the same one and when we want to change him, we must mix the feed so that he gets used to the change.

Collar, Leash, Harness: As until he has all the vaccines he cannot go out despite, it would be advisable to get him used to the leash and collar. If the puppy is small, you can use a harness to protect its neck. If not, nylon or soft leather collars are recommended.

Veterinary: The most important point, we must make checks to see that everything is fine.

More things to consider

Prepare a little corner for him to feel comfortable and rest at ease, with his bed, blanket, etc.

If you have another animal at home, it is important to always respect the spaces of the pets that lived in the house. If they play we must be attentive to them especially the first few days.

And above all educate him on time, it is very important.
