We have finally decided to take the plunge and get a puppy (well DH and I have decided , kids unaware yet in case it doesn’t happen!)
I work from home on a Monday - and we were planning on using puppy daycare for Tuesday to Friday as we cannot guarantee that we will be around enough otherwise. I have found a lovely daycare place and the owner said this would be fine but am conscious that it’s their business - are puppies really okay with 4 days in day care?
Timings wise, we were planning on getting the puppy at 10 weeks. Should I then take 2 weeks off so that they can get their jabs before going to puppy day care?
If those two weeks are over Xmas is that a really bad idea? We have quiet Xmas at home so we would be around then with lots of time for puppy but don’t want to time it wrongly.
When should we start doing puppy training classes?
My parents had dogs all my life but my mum didn’t work so things were less structured for them.
Any help appreciated. Am trying to get this right and not make mistakes!
