Bringing a new puppy home is an exciting time, but it can also be overwhelming. To ensure that your new furry friend feels comfortable and happy in their new surroundings, it’s important to be prepared. Here are some tips on what to do (and what not to do) when bringing a new puppy home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Where should a puppy sleep the first night?<\/strong> It’s best to have a designated area for your puppy to sleep their first night, such as a crate or a small room. This will help them feel safe and secure in their new environment. It’s also a good idea to put a familiar blanket or toy in the area to provide a sense of familiarity for the puppy.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

What should I do the first week with a new puppy?<\/strong> The first week with a new puppy is crucial for bonding and training. During this time, it’s important to:<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  • Establish a consistent routine for feeding, potty breaks, and playtime<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Begin house-training and basic obedience training<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Spend quality time with your puppy, including lots of cuddling and playtime<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Take your puppy to the vet for a check-up and to discuss any necessary vaccinations<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    How long does it take for a new puppy to adjust?<\/strong> It can take anywhere from a few days to a few weeks for a new puppy to fully adjust to their new environment. Every puppy is different, so it’s important to be patient and understanding as they adjust. It’s also important to remember that puppies can experience separation anxiety when left alone, so it’s best to gradually increase the amount of time they are left alone as they adjust.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    What not to do with a new puppy?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    • Don’t leave your puppy alone for long periods of time in the first few weeks<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Don’t use physical punishment as a form of training<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Don’t ignore or neglect your puppy. They need love, attention, and proper training to thrive.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Don’t overfeed your puppy. It can be tempting to give them table scraps or too many treats, but this can lead to health problems down the road.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • \"\"<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
