Puppy Essentials

• Water bowl (upside down style, one gallon water container/dish)

• Food bowl

• Iams “large breed puppy food” (many choices out there, we like Iams as it is balanced, and recommended by the veterinarian association) 

• Leash

• Collar- small/medium adjustable

• Bed

• Crate- I suggest a large version and section it off early on so they have sleeping space, but not enough room to make a potty area

• Toys- chew-able but not destructive

• Soft toys

• Chewing specific toys- not rawhide 

• Brushes- getting to the skin is important to prevent matting

• Shampoo- something gentle.  Burt's Bees makes a nice one.

• Blankets for the crate

• Nail clippers- scissor style

• Food storage container 

• Puppy treats- small and tasty made in USA

• Register/licence your new puppy
