Most people mentioned many of the things that you will need.

I've got crates up the wazoo, so crating wasn't an issue - though finding one in my house ok for an 8 week old pup is a lot different in size than what fits my 95 lb dobe :)

It may sound silly, but one of the only things I had to buy was a collar. I have big dogs right now, and I haven't had a smaller dog in awhile - so I don't have anything but adult dobe sized collars, and nice leather leashes. I don't want puppyface chewing on my nice leashes, and she will need a collar of her own (or 12), so I had to get some just for her.

I've got toys as well, and enough bowls, but I also had to get a smaller water bowl since she won't be able to reach the big dog bowl for... ok, like a month :)
Silly things I still need to get is a personal training bag for pup, a pup sized db for her to play with, and she will share clickers, etc with Rah.

I've also started to gather my posting supplies, I've got my Zonas tape, my powder, just need to get the foam.


When is your pup coming home?

LOL, thanks Kim! I wont need any taping for this breed ;)

The puppies(were getting 2 differnt breeds, and one will be mine the other one my brothers) will be able to reach the water bowl, but I didn't take that into consideration before.

Actually I'm ording my first blue puppy collar today :p

He'll need stainless steel food bowls since I'm doing all raw with this pup. I'm going to need a bed.


I'm hoping the puppy will come home any where from March-May. Thats right about the time I get out of school.
