Puppy Prep 101: Getting Ready for Your Furry Adventure
14 August 2023 by Natalie Rodley-Haines

Woof woof! Get ready for some puppy-filled fun as we dive into the exciting world of preparing for your first furry friend with puppy prep 101. Welcoming a puppy into your home is a tail-wagging adventure, and with a little preparation, you’ll be ready to give them the best start possible. So, grab your squeaky toys and puppy treats, and let’s explore what you need to do to get your home puppy-ready in a fun and friendly way!

1. Puppy-Proof Your Palace

Get ready to play hide-and-seek as you puppy-proof your home. Puppies have a knack for finding mischief, so make sure your place is safe and secure:

a. Hide Wires and Cords: Puppies love to chew, so secure loose wires and cords to prevent any unwanted nibbling adventures.

b. Tidy Up Temptations: Put away anything that could be harmful or tempting to your furry friend, like toxic plants, cleaning supplies, or shoes you don’t want to become chew toys.

c. Secure the Breakables: Puppies are known for their enthusiastic tail-wagging abilities. Store fragile items out of reach until your little tail-wagger learns the art of coordination.

d. Gate It or Crate It: Set up gates or use a crate to create safe spaces for your puppy. This will give them a cozy den and help with potty training too.

2.Puppy Supplies Galore

Before bringing your puppy home, stock up on essential supplies. Think of it as a shopping spree for your furry companion:

a. Comfy Bed: Your pup needs a cozy spot to rest their paws. Choose a soft, washable bed that they can call their own.

b. Food and Water Bowls: Invest in sturdy, non-slip bowls that are the right size for your growing pup. Make mealtime a breeze!

c. Toys, Toys, Toys: Keep your puppy entertained with a variety of toys, including plushies, chew toys, and puzzle toys. Their wagging tail will thank you!

d. Potty Essentials: Don’t forget puppy pads or outdoor potty training supplies to start their bathroom education on the right paw.

3. Healthy Habits and Pawsome Care

Taking care of your new puppy’s health is as important as playtime and belly rubs. Here’s what you need to consider:

a. Vet Visits: Schedule an appointment with a veterinarian for a check-up, vaccinations, and advice on puppy healthcare.

b. Nutritious Nibbles: Choose high-quality puppy food that meets their nutritional needs. Consult your vet for specific recommendations.

c. Grooming Goodies: Brush up on grooming basics like nail trimming, bathing, and dental care. Keep those puppy kisses fresh!

d. Training Tips: Enroll in puppy training classes or seek professional advice to ensure your pup grows up to be a well-mannered canine citizen.

Congratulations on embarking on this pawsitively delightful journey of getting your first puppy! By puppy-proofing your home, gathering essential supplies, and focusing on their health and well-being, you’re setting the stage for a joyful and harmonious life together. So, gather your squeaky toys, treat pouches, and puppy love, and get ready for endless tail wags, adorable antics, and a whole lot of unconditional love. Embrace the adventure with a smile and open arms—your new furry friend is about to steal your heart!  We hope you enjoyed our puppy prep 101, explore the blog for more.
