How to prepare for the return home of your Coton De Tulear puppies

Safety – Your dog’s safety is paramount and it’s important to put a few finishing touches on your home before picking up your pup. The first thing to buy is a dog bed or cage. Your pup will be unfamiliar with your home and it can be a bit daunting for a few days while your pup adjusts. A dog bed can help your pup adjust and can act as a safe place that he will soon recognize as his own. You can’t be with your pet 24 hours a day and a crate can ensure your pup is safe and give you peace of mind. A gate is also a good idea if you want to put up a barrier against places that may not be suitable for your dog to roam.

Toys and Treats: Your pup may be too young to play with toys when you first bring him home, but as your pup gets older, toys can help keep him busy when you can’t be there. Some treats can promote healthy gums and teeth and are a great source of fun for your pup.

Collar and Leash – This is one of the first things you should invest in. Although you may not be able to take your puppy outside for the first few weeks, you don’t want to be caught off guard when the time comes. Not only will a collar keep your dog safe on walks, but if your dog gets lost, it’s always handy to have his phone number on the collar.
