Your New Puppy

The supplies you will need:

  1. Dog food - There are many good foods on the market. Do your own research. We will get you started with our food, but learn to read labels and understand ingredients in the food you select, particularly protein sources. Food, vitamins and supplements you provide for your dog are very important for their overall health.
  2. Food and water bowls - stainless steel - long lasting and will not harbor bacteria.
  3. XS adjustable harness and light weight leash
  4. Travel crate for the car, and a wire crate for home
  5. Brush and grooming tools. We can make recommendations.
  6. Puppy shampoo, toothbrush and enzimatic toothpaste
  7. Chew and play toys
  8. Nail clippers
  9. Treats (read labels; buy made in USA only.)
