Bringing home an Australian Labradoodle puppy is an exciting time! At Texas Australian Labradoodles, we want to ensure your puppy preparation journey is as smooth as possible. Let us explore everything you need to know before your new furry friend arrives.
Essential Supplies Checklist
Before your Australian Labradoodle puppy runs through your door, you will need to gather several crucial items. Start with quality puppy food and water bowls that are sturdy and easy to clean. You will also need an adjustable collar and leash, a size-appropriate crate with easy-to-clean and sturdy bedding, and puppy-safe toys for teething. Do not forget training treats and basic grooming supplies, these will be essential for your early weeks together.
Creating a Puppy Safe-Space
Your new puppy needs a secure environment to explore and grow. Walk through your home and secure any loose wires or cables that could be tempting to chew on. Remove toxic houseplants and install baby gates if needed. It is important to set up a designated potty area outside (and inside if needed) and create a safe space for the crate where your puppy can retreat when feeling overwhelmed.
Training and Routine Planning
Success with your Australian Labradoodle puppy starts with proper planning. This means establishing consistent feeding schedules and setting up potty training routines that align with your daily life. Make sure to plan regular exercise times and arrange for puppy socialization opportunities. Remember to schedule your first few vet visits before your puppy arrives home; early health care is crucial for a strong start.
Health and Wellness
At Texas Australian Labradoodles, we prioritize your puppy’s health from day one. Before bringing your puppy home, research and choose a trusted veterinarian in your area. Having a vet you trust is essential for your peace of mind and your puppy’s well-being.
