PUPPY TIPS
Congratulations!
You now have a new addition "a puppy " to your household. I hope he/she brings you and your family many years of happiness. ( DON'T FOR GET YOUR VET VIST WITHIN 2 DAYS AND TO ORDER THE NUVET VITAMINS)
Here are a few Tips that may help you get through the first few days, weeks, or months. Please remember not to PANIC if your puppy doesn't adjust within 24 hours. It takes a week for them to acclimate. we get most of my "puppy panic calls" within the first week that people have their dog. Puppies go through a transition time from leaving their mother, litter mates, and our home. They may not eat well or may have loose stools. These tips should help you out.
Puppy vaccinations...
Keep up-to-date on vet appointments, shots and caring for the general health of your puppy. Remember to invest in good nutrition and care for him/her; it will pay off in the long run. I have given you the list of shots & worming he /she already has and the dates due for the next vet visit. Please be sure to follow the guide line i give you..Its so important your puppy gets all the shots and worming he needs.
Puppy won't eat...
Make sure you continue with the food he has been on. Puppies also love to eat broccoli stocks, brussel sprouts, and carrots. It's good for them! Also, it is important to start your puppy on a vitamin supplement- the
NU-VET vitamins are recommended .
Puppy has diarrhea...
½ teaspoon of Kaopectate with meals until stools are firm, or canned pumpkin ( as much pumpkin as he can eat is fine) . If the problem doesn't improve with in 48 hrs. call your vet. This is very common during the first week they are in their new environment. Cottage cheese or plain yogurt is good food for your puppy.
Puppy has blood in stool...
Watch their stool for a day or two. They can sometimes get blood in their stool after they are wormed or even if they have worms. Also a change in food or diet can cause intestinal bleeding. You can also watch for worms.
(sometimes those little buggers can't been seen , but are causing the puppy a great deal of tummy upset) The pups have been wormed every 2 weeks from birth however, please keep an eye on their stool. sometimes they are a bugger to get rid of. Blood in stools more than 48 hrs. needs to be checked by a vet. Take stool sample in so they can examine it.
Puppy won't sleep through the night...
He/she will awaken around 4-6:00 A.M to go potty. After a couple weeks they get stronger and probably will sleep through the night. You can get them on your schedule after the adjustment period.
Puppy cries...
Put a toy and a towel in crate. You can also play soft music or put a clock near their crate for noise.DO NOT put a puppy pad in the crate , this is teaching them its ok to go potty in the crate. It amazes me when people tell you to do this, it defeated the purpose!
Puppies won't obey...
Puppies will learn to obey with consistent training. I suggest obedience training. You can start training the day you bring your bundle of joy home.These babies are eager to please so be patient as they are learning to!
Puppy is lethargic...
If puppy isn't eating and drinking it tends to make them sluggish. It is important to get them hydrated. Give them children's pedialyte also honey is very good for a puppy thats lethargic due to sugar drop. I have cured many animals on honey alone.
Puppy vomits...
A good tip to get the puppy back to health is to use Pedialyte or a tbs of honey mixed in warm water to dissolve the honey then add ice cubes to cool down. Try to encourage them to drink this from their bowl.
Puppy goes potty in house...
When they are sniffing around an area that's your que to get them out . They should also give a bark to you when they are needing to potty. Listen to them, they are trying to tell you something! Crate train them at night and watch for signs. In 3 weeks you will be happy you were strict.
Puppy sleeps too much...
Let them rest! They are like newborn babies. They have a limited amount of energy and will only play for awhile. Playtime should be 30 minutes at the beginning and then you can extend it as the days and weeks pass.
Puppy is chewing...
A simple trick is to rub some Dial Soap on the items puppy is chewing. One taste of that and the toys and dog dish will seem a lot better! Good luck with your puppy! Me and my family has put a great deal of time and energy into making these puppies "owner friendly" and we wish you well and the beast of luck! If my simple suggestions don't work or medical problems develop in the first few days/weeks/or months please call your vet.
Thanks again!
