Create space and make sure you have toys to enrich them: puppies need space to play, and toys to keep them occupied .
Provide somewhere for your puppy to rest: this could be a cosy crate, hiding place or bed in a quiet, draught-free place where your puppy can sleep, undisturbed.
Take a blanket from the puppy’s first home – bring this back with you so they have something familiar and comfortable to snuggle in.
Remove anything poisonous or that you don’t want them chewing.
Find a VET – you can always find a local vet in your area or visit us in Grassy Park and our vets will happily assist you.
Arrange for puppy training classes to set your pup up for success – these can get booked up, so find a class and sign up as soon as you know you’re getting a puppy.
By the time your puppy comes home with you, they should have: had their first puppy vaccination, started potty training, been introduced to new situations and people.
