Caring for Puppy's

Here are some tips on how to take care of a new puppy's

A puppy will need 18 - 19 hours of sleep a day, as this helps them to grow health and strong. They like to sleep in the same spot and with the same blanket, they prefer to be close to their family / owner's.

Thing's you need for a puppy
  • clean warm bed
  • food bowl water bowl
  • fresh water
  • food and treat's
  • toys
  • grooming kit
  • a safe place to run around
  • harness and lead









Feeding

puppy's should always have fresh water available. 
They need to be fed food appropriate to there age, up to six months old they need to be fed three times a day. never fed a dog raw meet, chocolate, onions, grapes or raisin's, as they can be toxic to dog's and puppies.

Other things

As we know most of our animal companions will need things like vaccinations. Puppies need fortnightly worming until 12 weeks of age and then three monthly after. Flea treatment as required. From the age of six months they can be desexed in order to prevent unwanted puppies.

  1. Hey Anthony,

    This is Jade C from the Summer Learning Journey blogging team. It's great to read another amazing blog post about puppies :)

    Wow, 18-19 hours of sleeps sounds like a very long time to sleep, it's more than double the amount of time that I spend sleeping each day! Human babies sleep for a very long time as well (like your Gypsy!), and they certainly do need their sleep to be strong and healthy.

    I have a cat called Mellow and she also likes to sleep in her soft and comfy bed with cuddly blanket that keeps her warm and cozy. Does gypsy have a soft blanket?

    I really liked reading your blog about puppies and you had some really useful information and photos that supported your tips to take care of puppies. It would be awesome to see some SLJ activity posts on your blog :) Feel free to check out our activities page and pick the ones that interests you the most!

    All the best,
    Jade C.
