Puppy 101

Are you considering getting a Corgi puppy? Then there are some things you need to know this could be used with puppies in general.

Supplies
Bowls- You will need at least 2 one for water one for food.
Puppy food- Your breeder will give you a suggestion normally what the puppy is already eating.


Pee Pads- Start off with some larger pads since your puppy will not know where to go as they will go often. As time passes you can gradually get smaller sizes and they will get better with aim. Also take your puppy out side to the grass about 15 minutes after they eat and about 10 minutes after they drink. Try to take them to same spot if you can to familiarize them with going to the bathroom outside.


Training Treats- to help with training your puppy.

 
Toy's- These to me are pretty important if you love your furniture, these will most likely save your furniture as puppies will chew on anything, (I found this out the hard way Desi chewed up out camera SD card with tons of pictures of him as a puppy that we had not yet backed up. He also chewed a pair of brand new shoes.)

Collar & Leash- You will need both of these if you ever intend on talking your puppy anywhere.
 
Dog Name Tag- Info I put on mine are dogs name, cellphone number, house phone number and if there is room our home address.
Dog Kennel/Crate- This should be big enough for the puppy to lay in comfortably but not enough room for the puppy to use the bathroom in and get away from it. From what I understand this is to train your puppy to not use the bathroom when they are in the kennel but feel safe in the kennel.

Dog Bed- so the dog can lounge around

Shots- Now before you go and let your dog outside please make sure to get there shots. DO NOT TAKE THEM OUT UNTIL THEY HAVE AT LEAST 2 SETS OF SHOTS. This is to avoid them getting PARVO

Grooming Supplies- Brushes, shampoo
