Hello!
I’ve posted before when DP and I were considering getting a dog and exploring options - puppy / rescue etc.
DP and I have since contacted a local rescue who have carried out a home visit, think we are suitable and may have a dog in mind for us.
It is all very early stages and I don’t want to get our hopes up. I also have no plans to actually buy anything at this stage - I just want to be prepared for when the time comes so I know what to get.
We’ve been advised that it really differs what the dogs come in with - some have everything, others have a collar, if that!
Please can you suggest a list of things to make sure we have for when the time comes? Also, Pets at Home seems to get mixed reviews on here - are we okay buying stuff from there or should we go elsewhere?
In addition, as the weather is turning DP and I should probably get some proper walking boots / shoes and waterproofs. Any suggestions on where to get these, along with any suggestions of what else we should get?
Thanks in advance.
