Puppy Care

At around 12 weeks of age, your dog will have begun to teething. You may notice bites and excessive chewing, keep certain chewable objects out of reach (such as power cords, shoes, and house plants).

Choosing the right puppy

1st – Examine your lifestyle and consider what you are looking for in a dog. Pure or mixed race? Big or small? There are many other factors to consider, such as hygiene and exercise needs, temperament and possible health problems. You also need to decide where to look for your new dog. Prefer to visit an animal shelter to adopt your new dog?
