Rescue puppy!

[absolutmum]

Hello

Just reserved a gorgeous lab/labradoodle cross puppy at the RSPCA. Only the home visit to happen and we can pick her up. 10 year son is so excited! He's wanted a dog for years.

So, DH was brought up with dogs in the house but I wasn't, what will we need? We will get a crate, a harness, lead, bowls, blankets etc. Anything else essential?

Thanks!

Collar rather than harness i would recommend.

Puppy kong for when u leave pup in crate and good for the chew phase.

Doggy poop bags and a pair of wellies for all the walks!

How exciting! That's fantastic.

You will need a chew toy of some sort.

Ian Dunbar's textbook about raising a puppy is free online here.

Thank you.

Now waiting for the RSPCA to call to arrange a home visit. I think ds is going to explode!
