It's nesting time!
Preparing the home for Baby Weim.
After making your deposit ;) and waiting to bring home baby weim, you get to take this time to prepare the family and the home with all the essentials. Take this time to watch dog movies. Get educated on training through You Tube, books and trainers. Discuss the house rules for the new pup. On the couch or off? Sleeps in bed or not? Most habits are hard to break once learned. Set baby weim up for success. Talk to friends and family and try to find a vet you think you will be happy with. And lets stock the house with all the new baby goodies. :)
Let's see, What do we need.......keeping it to the bare necessities of course. :)
*Food
*Food Storage Container
*Stainless Steel food Bowl and water Bowl, maybe a replenishing water bowl- My suggestion is going to the farm store or large pet store and picking these out yourselves.
*Attach an easy to remove Water bowl for crate- again, you will have a large dog sooner than later, you might want to check these out in store as well.
*Pee pads or news papers for crate or your preferred location of elimination if its in the house. Read the reviews and get the good ones. There is no point in buying the ones that leak, right.
*Dog Crate-Get the most durable crate you can find. Check sizes and bed size, plus potty room. Your male weim can be 27 by 27 not including his neck and head.
*Bed- know that there is a 80% chance it will get chewed up the first year. Well, They are growing puppies. lol
*puppy Collar with tag* a chip is good but a tag is needed ASAP (an honest person will call the number on the tag, make it easy for people to help baby come home at any unforeseen moment.
*Leash- NO Retractable leashes. You need to have full control over your baby at all times.
*Shampoo -Nuvet has a great puppy shampoo https://www.nuvetlabs.com/order_new2/puppy-kitten-shampoo.asp
*Nuvet- https://www.nuvetlabs.com/order_new2/nuvet-plus-wafers.asp
We all need to use extra nutrients nowadays, with our farming changing it's ways. Our Food just isn't as dense as it once was, with all the goodness. That's why those store bought tomatos or cucumber (any food) taste nothing like a good old fashioned homegrown tomato or cucumber . It's missing it's dense nutrients, hence flavor and also the reason we consume more food/calories. We are still trying to feed our bodies nutrients, what our bodies know they need.
*Hemp Trailz- https://www.hemptrailz.com/product-category/pet-products/?aff=2 CBD is good to have on hand. You never know when you might need extra calming remedies for you or the pet, lol. Anyway, Hemp Trailz is a very effective good product.
*Fish oil is an effective good quality product.
*Flea medicine
*Nail cutters, Files or drimmel- Mine are use to the cutters
*dog Toys and Chews, just to name a few.
*Toy box- yes teach them now and they will put their toys away and get them out as needed.
*Treats- There's a page for that. lol
*Door bells hung at his level- When he is done with potty training around 4 months you can take bells off the door and command strip them to the wall. So, then you don't have to hear them anymor everytime the door opens.
Scroll down and look at the different types of items you might be interested in. Really put thought in what you think you might need in your home. Say you want your baby on the couch but you might want to cover it for easy cleaning. Maybe the type of collar they have fabric ones, to leather and bedazzled ones.There is a different type in everything. Go ahead and purchase what you think is best for your families needs.
