The change in environment will be stressful for the new family member. A few points to remember:
- Keep the pup on the same diet for the first ten days.
- Obtain the worming history from the breeder and establish when it should next be de-wormed.
- Make a point of obtaining a vaccination card and make a note when the next vaccinations are due.
- Keep the puppy in one room taking care to the door closed. Ignore the noise (1st training)
- Ensure a warm, comfortable bed with a hot water bottle and an alarm clock in the clothing. The dog will find the ticking clock comforting.
- Newspaper on the floor to soak up accidents.
- Supervise the introduction of other animals to the pup.
- Puppies need to relieve themselves frequently and very often after exercise, eating, or sleeping. Encourage the pup to relieve itself on paper. Never punish it for soiling on the floor and dont put its not in the mess - some owners mistakenly believe this to be the right thing to do.
- The first few nights will be nosey, as it will be missing mum and litter mates - ignore.
- Always bring the puppy home on fridays when you have an off day on Saturday and Sunday to spend with the pup in order for it to adjust.
