Bringing a new puppy home is an exciting experience, and proper preparation ensures a smooth transition. At Wray Aussies, we start potty and crate training our puppies early, but here are some additional steps to help you get ready:
Puppy-Proof Your Home Remove hazards such as electrical cords, small objects, and toxic plants. Secure trash cans and store household chemicals out of reach.
Gather Essential Supplies Have the basics ready: food and water bowls, high-quality puppy food, a comfortable bed, a crate, chew toys, a collar, and a leash.
Set a Routine Puppies thrive on routine. Establish feeding times, potty breaks, and play sessions to help them adjust quickly.
Schedule a Vet Visit A check-up with your vet ensures your puppy is healthy and up to date on vaccinations. Discuss any questions about diet, training, and care.
Start Training Early Positive reinforcement training helps build good habits. Consistency and patience will go a long way in helping your Aussie grow into a well-behaved companion.
Preparing for your new puppy sets the stage for a happy and rewarding relationship. If you’re ready to welcome an Australian Shepherd into your home, contact Wray Aussies today!
