Things You Will Need If You Get A Puppy
 
1. 36 inch long wire crate, throw away any partitions that may be with it.  Decreasing the cage size can make your puppy stir crazy. Yes, really. Too small a cage can cause neurosis and brain damage. They are about $55 at Wal-Mart. Get one with a removable tray. Only crate for short periods of time. Please see our FAQs.
 
2. Beneful Original Formula Food, Purina ONE original food. They are not PUPPY FOOD. Puppy foods generally have too much protein and they have calcium, usually. The calcium can cause bone disease in these small dogs. We think wetting the food is best. Continue wetting food for one week after arrival at your home. Changing food can kill the puppy. Free Feed for one week or so, before putting the pup on a schedule. Please see:  "New Pup Primer".
 
3. Metal Bowls
 
4. Hotel Towels- 8 or so, Light weight Towels dry quickly.
 
5. Hamper for Dog Towels
 
6. Baby Gate- for kitchen, laundry room, breakfast so pup can have a contained room environment.
 
7. CHEW TOYS- not for interactive play- no interactive play toys- no pull toys or balls= Please see: "How to Raise the Most Gentle Pet".
 
8. Carry Case the size for a Cocker Spaniel. It should only be used for transport, never for containment in the house as it is much too small and closed off.
 
9. Wire Comb, Pin Brush, Matt Breaker, Q-tips, Handle Tweezers, Hydrogen Peroxide, Alcohol Wipes, Baby Shampoo, WITHOUT CONDITIONERS [which can cause skin problems], Blow Dryer, Front Line Spray for Fleas, NOT TOP SPOT or vial for back of neck.  Please see: "Fleas, Ears, Eyes & Toes", and Grooming page.

10. 6 ft. Hose end sprayer for your bath tub, so you can easily bath the pup without putting him in a full  tub of water. The hose end sprayer completely changes the bathing process for you and your pup. You can easily do a 5 min. bath and get him completely clean and completely rinsed in 5 min. Remember to use BABY SHAMPOO WITHOUT CONDITIONERS.  Conditioners will harm his skin and cause skin problems. Blow him dry. Remember to dry inside his ears with Q-tips. See Grooming page and "Fleas,Ears, Eyes" article.

Smaller crates cause cage anxiety and neurosis. You do not want to make your puppy go insane. Some crates come with a petition to make it smaller- throw it away!

Baby gates, for gating the puppy's safe room, like a laundry room or kitchen. It is also wise to gate stairs, decks, etc. Many households need several Baby Gates. Search for the one you like the most.Do not use gates with expandable-retractable diamonds as pups can choke in them.


6. Petmate Kennel Cab

Jeffer's Item # DK A9   ~$30

About JeffersPet.com A great Catalog for pet supplies:  On 9/11 I called Dr. Jeffers at his catalog office in Dothan AL, and told him we needed some money for Search and Rescue Dogs' Booties, etc., to assist in rescue  and recovery of the 9/11 victims. Within one hour he had his webmaster put up an internet donation website. What Heart!  Dr. Jeffers raised $47,000 in 48 hours for the Search and Rescue dogs. He gave the money to SAR police teams, at NYPD. The late Dr. Jeffers led his business with a caring heart, and he left a legacy of caring to his daughter who now manages the huge catalog business in Dothan AL, situated on south side of  AL at the FLA/GA/AL state lines.


 Jeffer's  is one of the world's largest catalogs.  They specialize in Pet, Livestock, and Equine/Horse Supplies. We have found their selection, quality, service, and prices to be the best. And, our dogs sometimes model for the catalog.
