Bringing a New Dog Home – Essential Tips For Success

Excecutive Summary about Dog Home by E. Corson Strand

Basic advice to make sure you bring your new dog home successfully.

First of all when your dog arrives at your home, you have to provide :

  • leash
  • collar and I.D. Tags (as soon as possible)
  • food and water bowls
  • a few dog toys
  • bedding
  • a place for your puppy to sleep

Personally, I get a huge kick out of introducing a puppy to its new home, and I even like to have a camera on hand to save a few mementos for years down the road. My wife and I have experience with larger breed dogs such as Labradors and German Shepherds as those just seem to suit us.

The very first time you bring your puppy or dog home, give it a grand tour of your house or apartment or dorm room

As you lead the puppy on its tour, give a gentle but sharp tug on the leash when it shows interest in items that are off limits.

After you have shown the puppy around the house, introduce your pet to its food and water bowls. Let the puppy say “hello” to its bedding. If you have a crate, you can let the dog start sniffing and investigating it.

When you feel that the dog has become accustomed to the residence, after a day or two, you can begin introducing it to the surrounding environment.

Bringing a new dog home is always an exciting experience. Here are some things to consider to help you and your dog enjoy each other :

  • Know Your Dog

Get to know your dog so that you have an understanding of their personality and behavior.

  • Obedience Training

You will need to be able to control them. This is where dog obedience training becomes valuable. They need to know that you are the boss and are in control.

  • Keep Your Dog’s Breed in Mind

Learn about the breed of your dog including why that breed came into being.

  • Reaction to People

Some people are not fond of certain types of dogs so you may have to reassure them about your dog’s behavior.

  • Dogs Need Exercise

Getting exercise for your dog requires that you take them jogging or walking with you on a consistent basis.
