Pup Home Tuesday...Last Minute Advice? ^^

MissMetric · 01-06-2013, 07:26 PM

Alright everyone!

I'm bringing home Talos on Tuesday, so I thought I'd make this thread to ask for any last minute advice/tips before it's too late and my entire life is consumed by puppy. ^^

I think I'm pretty well prepared. He has all the essentials and a few non essentials (fourteen toys to be on a rotation schedule, lucky boy!) but I'm looking for any advice that you just have to get from people that books/internet articles don't really warn you about.

And hopefully my thread helps any other soon to be first time puppy owners. Anything at all is helpful, and I appreciate it all!

Wish me luck!

Get extra sleep now. I was totally exhausted from multiple trips outside at night with our new puppy. So definately get more sleep now.
