Preparing for your new puppy to come home
Congratulations on deciding to adopt a chihuahua puppy from I Luv Chihuahuas!!
Before you bring your puppy home, you should have the following:
-
A play yard or designated confined area for you puppy. The area should be big enough for a bed, food, water and a pee pad
-
Bed
-
Pee pads ( I buy the pee pads from publix—they are the best quality)
-
Plenty of safe items to chew on and toys to play with
-
Nutri-cal
-
An appointment with a good vet that is familiar with chihuahuas scheduled within 72 hours of you taking your puppy home.
-
Puppy proof your home (no exposed electrical cords, cleaning supplies, plants, etc.)
-
Food and water bowls
-
You will need a leash and harness but its best to wait until you have the puppy for accurate measurements for the harness.
-
Food that the puppy is currently eating ***ROYAL CANIN XTRA SMALL PUPPY DRY FOOD******
-
Plan your schedule to have a couple days off when your new baby comes home to spend time with them. Going to a new home is a big event for a puppy so they will need to be comforted and loved so they don’t get too stressed out being alone in a strange environment.
