I'm hoping I don't get flamed for this but we are taking in a 3 month old sprocker spaniel tomorrow. We literally have nothing!
We've waited almost a year for the right fit for our family, two children 3-5 and two adults, without going into detail we can't let her stay where she is and have agreed to take her on (was originally bought for £550 by someone we know locally to breed fwiw) and although we've not met her yet we desperately want her to be part of our family. The plan is to bring her home, Monday take her to get a medical and pet insurance and microchipped, vaccinated, wormed, fleed, date for neutering etc.
I won't leave her where she is, she has been around other children and I'm told she's great with kids, what I'm wanting to know is anyone's experiences with this breed, anything I could have missed to ask vet and how to help her settle with us. The kids are gentle with animals, can be loud but on the whole good and loving, she can sleep in with us which I was thinking would be best for a while anyway.
Any advice on what to get would be appreciated, thinking food, toys, bed and we have blankets. She's not registered, I'm not precious about anything other than giving her the home she deserves and settling here. Tia! X
