Puppy Checklist

This page is under Construction!


Below is a checklist that we put together with items for you to consider/purchase for your puppy before he/she gets to your home! We recommend to start looking at these items early and make a plan to get them ordered so they arrive before your puppy does!


This post contains links to products that I may receive compensation from as an amazon associate at no additional cost to you.

Food

Training Treats

Supplements

This food is an All Life Stages Food, so it can be continued safely throughout your puppy's entire life. This is what all of our adult dogs typically eat and what our own puppies are raised on.


  • ProPlan Sport

Supplements

Training Treats

Supplements

I typically don't start nor recommend supplements until dogs are 6+ months old. Fish oil to help with coat growth is all I will use with a young pup.


  • Myos 
  • Fish Oil 
  • YuMove

Training Treats

Training Treats

Training Treats

We use and recommend treats that are soft and perfect size for training (lots of varieties but our favorites are listed below!)


  • Zukes 
  • Pet Botanics
  • Tricky Trainers

Biscuit's

Training Treats

Training Treats

While we like soft treats for training, we love harder biscuit's for our treat jar! We keep treat jars by each door to reward pups for coming back inside after pottying!


  • Bark Pops
  • Charlee Bear
  • OMH

Other foods we like


Each dog is different, just because our dogs do best on one type of food, doesn't mean your pup will do best on that same food, even if they are related! These are a few other foods we have fed and recommend. If you have questions about any food related issues with your pup or questions in general, don't hesitate to ask us!


  • Pro Plan Sensitive Skin & Stomach
  • Nutri Source 
  • Farmina / N&D
  • Raw

Crates

We highly recommend crate training.  For most pet owners, it is the most cost efficient to buy a large wire crate with a divider you can move as your puppy grows. Need help with sizing? Shoot us a message!


  • Midwest Wire Crates 
  • Petmate Plastic
  • Rufflands

Bed Platforms

Bed Platforms

Our favorite beds to use are the Kuranda raised beds due to being comfortable, space saving, and most importantly, easy to clean. We also like Kimb raised beds for areas where space may be limited.


  • Kuranda
  • Klimb
  • Coolaroo
  • Cato Board

X - Pen

Bed Platforms

We love the use of x - pens with our personal puppies. It allows them to be out with our family, but contain  them from wandering and having accidents, harassing other dogs or getting into trouble. They are great to help teach relaxation off of a bed and can be used to help with seperation anxiety.


X - pens are NOT crates and should not be used while you are gone.
