So what are we waiting for let's get started!!!! 

1. Puppy Blanket 

   Now, this is one of the most important things to do right away that is whenever you have decided your place from where you are going to get your pet dog make sure you go there and give the dog owner a blanket.

   So you might wonder how would giving the dog owner a blanket be of any help well that's the whole trick dogs in the early stages as a puppy are all about the scent.

   so you can ask the dog owner to make the puppy's mother sleep on that blanket with her puppies so this will leave the scent of her mother on the blanket and trust me you will not regret doing this. Make sure you do this least a week before you get the puppy.

   

    

2.  Puppy proofing your house

   Now the house you have been living isn't just yours anymore you are going to have a very curious baby paw running around that house very soon.

   It's your job to make sure that you keep away things that are meant to be away from him.

   Anything from pieces of paper or vertical blinds and long cords which he might find a chew on you don't want that to happen to speak from experience.

   (Mine got chewed in the dark night she woke up and my mouse cable got her interest and bam it was into two pieces the next morning and she had her sound sleep in the corner).

   Another quick reminder make sure any plants in and around your house are not poisonous to your new fur friend.

3. Stock up on supplies

   With this, if you have to do your research with good dog food which will help in all-round development some I can suggest is (Royal Canin)this is really good dog food for puppies especially in those starting years but you don't have to buy it right away.

   what you actually have to do is
   Check with the dog owner on what kind of food he is being fed and get a packet of the dog food so that there is no drastic change of food if that happens your puppy might not eat right away and you can change it over two weeks by adding a small quantity of the new dog food in the old one.

   

    

   Next, these are something you would need to do after your get your furry paw friend.

   1.  Early exposure

      These starting stages the first weeks are very important for your puppy you need to get them exposed to things which you want them to be comfortable around.

      For examples when the sleep you should keep touching them this will help them get used to human touch and they won't be waking up every two seconds on getting touched in their later life.

      Next, you can do is getting them comfortable with the different sounds in your house like the tv or the vacuum cleaner again a lot of help in the future.

      This is also an important stage to get your puppy used to groom and nail clipping
      Another point is not giving your puppy to much freedom and how can you do that is by getting a puppy crate as dogs like closed spaces so this will make them feel like home for them.

   2. Socializing your puppy

      Now, this is something you must be very careful about if you have a walled backyard that is a good space for your puppy to develop her sense of smell and her instincts.

      

      But do make sure you don't let her close to any other dogs until she has all her vaccines done if you don't do so there are chances of them getting contacted with deadly diseases which we most definitely don't want.

      Once she is up to date with her vaccines you can take them to different places met other dogs and people so she shows no aggression to people in her later stages which is very important as aggression in dogs in later stages is a big problem.

      

       

   3. Puppy schedule 

      Now even we humans as a kid want to do things at our own time but it's important we set up a schedule for our paw friend.

      like the time she goes out or maybe just before sleep time, she is done with all her stuff so she can sleep sound make sure you keep them in their cages so they can get used to them as well and don't panic.

      Also, keep a puppy feeding schedule in the start you might have to feed them multiple times in specific time instances so keep that in your mind.

      

      Dog bowls these are really important to make sure you get a couple of them so can use them multiple times just in case you are too bored to clean one.

   4. Be ready for expenses 

      This is the last and important point to be ready for expenses the dog vaccines she is going to get are going to be expensive so you make sure you have your funds saved up for her as these are really important for them will protect them from any possible diseases and keep her healthy.

      So these were some of the most important things you should keep in mind before you get your first pet dog.
