Part 2: Puppy and You

Before bringing a puppy home, you will need to be prepared:

Provide time and space for your puppy to play.

Getting safe toys to keep your puppy stimulated.

Provide a cage, hiding places and/or cosy bed in a quiet, draft-free place where your puppy can rest undisturbed.

Remove anything poisonous or that you don’t want them chewing.

If your puppy is 12weeks old and onwards (but less than 6months old), your puppy can habe their second or third vaccinations around now. Also ask your vet about deworming, flea treatment and possibility of desexing your puppy.

This is the time for your puppy to undergo training thoroughly and socialisation.

12 weeks

Once your puppy is fully vaccinated, you can socialise them outside.

Good puppy classes are a great way to boost their confidence and learn basic training.

Knowing what your puppy likes (favourite food or toys) can motivate them during training.

Growing and learning is tiring so let them rest regularly and keep training sessions short and fun.

If your puppy�s crate trained let them use it as a safe haven.
