Hi everyone!
So tomorrow Maximus comes home!!!
I have a question and wanted to get some opinions. We have about an hour and a half drive home from the breeders, so it's not that far.
I'm guessing he'll probably sleep all the way home, but if not, should I stop and let pup relieve himself halfway home?
My main question is what should I do when I get home. Should I stop outside the garage and take him around the side of the house to his new "potty area"? Should I pull into the garage, take him into the house and then out the door to his potty area? Or should I pull into the garage, take him into the house and let him explore/play with him for a bit to get him a little familiar with the house and then take him out to go potty?
I figure if he sleeps all the way home, he may need to go when we get home. I'm sure it's not a huge deal either way, but just I would throw it out there and get some opinions.
I'm leaning towards taking him home, bringing him in the house (carrying him up the garage steps into the house), letting him explore for 10 or 15 minutes and then taking him outside to his potty area.
Any thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated!
I can't tell you how excited my daughter and I am are! It's been a long wait... but it's almost over!
