We are currently registered with some rescue centres waiting for a puppy to become available I want to get ahead a bit and get some of the stuff we will need sooner rather than later, so what sort of things do I need? I've had dogs before but never a puppy.
I'm thinking bed (do I buy a puppy sized bed and then a bigger one later, or a big one and stuff loads of blankets in to make it cosy?), bowls, collar?halti?harness? and lead (we don't know what sort of dog/ how big it will be yet so maybe wait until we know?), toys erm, what else?!?!
Crate training was recommended by one of the rescues so I think a crate too.
We've found a vet and training classes.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated
