It is normal for dogs to be protective of their territory. Their territory can be your home or even your car, therefore, it can cause your current dog to be more on edge/defensive if they meet where your current dog is commonly socialized. It is best to introduce them in an area where your current dog does not frequently visit, like a neighbors yard.

Yes! You can certainly change your puppy’s name to anything you’d like.

It is important that you teach your puppy how to walk on a leash at a young age. We recommend that you walk your puppy using a harness, NOT a collar. A collar can put too much pressure on your puppy’s developing trachea. Do not leave your puppy unattended with his/her harness on, your puppy could potentially chew it off.

We strongly recommend crate training!  We have available crate kits at the Club that you can pick up on adoption day.

The transitional period normally takes around 10 days, during that period your puppy may not want to eat well. The entire environment is new for him/her, from sights and sounds to smells. To make the adjustment easier, you should allow him/her to have plenty of rest time in a safe place; that is why a crate is important. Please, feed as we have directed in your care video and give us a call if your puppy is not eating enough or if he/she doesn’t have at least 2 bowel movements a day. A decline in your puppy’s health state can appear quickly. Our puppies’ health is our top priority.
