  Dog trainer here! For anyone not wanting to invest in a calming spray for travel (or settling your pup if they get anxious/antsy when you leave them alone), putting a small blanket or hoodie/tshirt that you've worn for a few hours in with them helps as well. Your scent will comfort them, and it's free!

  dog groomer here (who is about to get her first puppy) thank you for mentioning the comb!! it’s so simple but so important to use and make sure you’re not just brushing the top layer of coat

  This brings back so many memories, I watched the first puppy haul right before getting my first puppy, and now his nearly 2 years old now!

  Hay, VTA student here! Please brush your dogs teeth at least 3x a week or it’s practically useless! And you’ll end up spending $1000s of dollars on dental procedures to remove the built up calculus and teeth removal (requires anesthesia too so it gets pricey). Thanks :)

  for the molds, another thing to try is bone broth! the honest kitchen or native pet have good ones! we use them and then freeze. another thing is goats milk frozen. :)

  Your original puppy haul video is how I first found you. Think you and Sunny are adorable. 🌞🐶

  For the tag if you live in the United States it's actually EXTREMELY dangerous to put your address on you're dogs tags. Remember to put your name, phone number and add REWARD on their tag so they're more likely to bring the dog back! I also recommend having a good recall for your dogs so if they accidentally get loose they can be recalled back even if it's not a perfect recall.

  We are getting an 8 week old female toy poodle in a week and a half, when she is able to leave her parents. We will name her Mia. I am excited.

  When we got our puppy we got her a play pen. And in only a few months she learned to climb over it.

  for me, I never put my address on my dog tags anymore. only phone number because I've heard stories of weirdos taking pics of dogs and their tags pretending to think the dog is cute just to stalk the owner. :( but the full dog name tip is also good.

  I have a little 5 year old chi mix, and now I'm getting another baby chi. After 5 years, I've completely forgotten everything about puppies so thank you very much for the tips! it was an amazing refresher course!

  We got our first puppy in October 2021, a cockapoo we named Dougie! I thought I was fully prepared but for the most part I’ve just learned a lot as time has gone on and I’m not sure I’ll ever stop learning
