Visiting the parents-to-be is welcomed when we have a litter anticipated --
Puppies should be at least 5 weeks old for temperment testing. Once you've chosen a puppy that is available to be selected, it is identified.
~ Before bringing home your new puppy....Prepare Yourself! ~
Before you bring your new puppy home.....visit your library to read and review the many different puppy training books on a variety of methods and perspectives on puppy training.
You'll find books available from many dedicated authors, each one hoping to help you be successful with your new puppy.
After you've brought your new puppy home.....if you took my suggestions to heart, then there isn't much for me to reiterate here.....but I'd be remiss if I didn't include a few reminders.....
Never let the puppy inadvertently injure itself, the couch and a bed are too high for a puppy to navigate! The orthropedic veterinary's rule of thumb is to NEVER let a puppy or a dog jump down from a height greater than it's own shoulders' height to avoid injury.
Playing with a tennis ball against a wall, or any other injurious repetitive action that creates the need for the puppy to be constantly "braking" repetively is known to cause damage to the joints. Play with your puppy responsibly to avoid trauma induced injury.
Never over-exercise your pup, veterinarians recommend only moderate exercise until your puppy is full grown, which isn't until about two years of age for a large breed puppy.
Never pick up a puppy solely by its front legs, it can cause injury.
Remember to bring your puppy in for its' recommended schedule of vaccinations. Be prepared to provide proper veterinarian care when needed.
Puppy proof the area(s) that your pup will have access to before your puppy gets into trouble. Limit your pup's freedom to eliminate accidents.
Feed quality puppy food to ensure your puppy's proper nutritional needs are met throughout it's growing years to ensure proper growth, especially important in large breed puppies. Don't be hesitant to modify the suggestions or concepts that you've read in books and adjust what you've learned to make solutions that work in your home with your new puppy. If you've researched puppy behaviour, you will be able to recognize dominance play. Do not roughhouse with your puppy, what may be cute with a tiny pup is not cute with an adult dog.
And, in my opinion, it is never the puppy's fault, look to yourself to prevent whatever happened from happening again. Well, let me re-state that....innate activities like digging, vocalization, love of life, dominance play and curiosity and teething - chewing are all part of the puppy package, which is why you should be prepared to successfully modify or safely re-direct such behavior as it may be encountered!
