Getting ready to bring your new puppy home

 While in our care your Pomeranian puppy has been fed Purina Pro Plan Puppy Chicken & Rice Formula dry dog food We free feed our puppies meaning we keep the food out and available all the time.

DO NOT switch your puppy to another brand of food abruptly. If a change of food is required, wait at least 2 weeks after your new puppy has arrived into your home. Upon switching mix the old brand with your new brand for at least a week, gradually increasing the amount of the new brand until the switch is made.

 Provide your puppy with clean water at all times. We recommend using only stainless steel or ceramic water bowls. Plastic can harbor bacteria. Change and clean water bowls daily. 

We do not feed our puppies treats because some new owners don't prefer to give treats to their dogs. Our adults love Bil-Jac Little-Jacs training treats. They are soft, very small and irresistible! 

Treats are very beneficial for training and encouraging good behavior. However, do not give your puppy too many treats as this could cause it to go off its food. An occasional tidbit is ok especially during training. Do not make it a habit of constant treats or people food. Treats and table scraps are not formulated for optimum nutrition but are to be used a special "treat". Table scraps usually contain way too much salt, sugar and preservatives to be healthy for a dog. 

We only use Crown Royale shampoo and conditioner products to bath our dogs. They are super concentrated work amazing and smell great. You only need a small amount to do an excellent job.  The grooming spray makes brushing so much easier for both you and your dog by releasing the tangles.  

For regular brushing we use a slicker brush with wider spaced bristles.  These types work great on longer coats for regular brushing to keep the coat tangle free.  

These types of slicker brushes with the long angled close together pins work great to get through longer fur if you like to keep your Cavapoo curly.  Regular brushing will keep your pup tangle free. 

Nail care is very important . We trim our puppies nails regularly so they are accustomed to having their feet handled. We use small nail clippers which are easier to maneuver with small paws.   Continue with this regular nail trimming routine and your groomer with love you! For a more finished look we use  Dremel Nail Grinder It only takes a few minutes to have nice puppy nails!  

Puppies love to snuggle up in soft cuddle beds. These work best in a playpen or a larger space. 

Crate beds work best inside a wire crate. They are sized to fit just right.
