Jami’s Goldendoodles & Poodles

❣️🐾IN PREPARATION OF PUPPIES HEADING TO THEIR NEW HOMES IN A FEW SHORT WEEKS🐾❣️ 🐾INFORMATION FOR YOUR NEW PUPPY🐾 It’s getting really close for puppies to make their way to their new home! FOOD- Purina Pro Plan Large Breed Puppy chicken and rice. Your new baby is use to eating 2 times a day, 1 cup each feeding. Your puppy will bring home a small bag of food, in case you switch food, you can mix it to prevent upset tummy/runny poo. Make sure you check your bag and feed recommend feeding amount. DO NOT FEED…GRAIN FREE FOOD. As great as this may sound, it causes severe, even terminal damage to your new baby! COLLAR- Your new baby will come home with their kennel collar. Most will likely be able to fit into their new collar within a few weeks of going home. I recommend purchasing a size MEDIUM for them to grow into. But that is completely up to the new owner. MICROCHIP- Every puppy that comes from my program is inserted with a Fi Microchip before they leave my possession. The registration is completely free and so beneficial if they do ever become missing. VACCINES- Every puppy will be current on their vaccines when they leave my possession. They will be ready for their 2nd round of booster vaccines at 9 weeks. Make sure you speak with your vet/future vet, to check their policy for new puppies, but typically, they are given every 3-4 weeks, being completed at 16 weeks. It is HIGHLY recommended that you schedule an appointment with your vet within the first week of picking up your new puppy. That way they stay on track with their vaccination schedule. In your folder you receive there is a paper with vaccine and deworming history, as well as on your Purina Pro Plan folder. GROOMING- Your new baby will come to you freshly bathed, nails trimmed, and sanitary area cleaned up. Standard poodle puppies will also have their face and toes shaved. Bathing at home, in between grooms is almost a must. I recommend a shampoo and conditioner for your babies hair. Don’t forget to place a little mineral oil in the ears to prevent infection. Shower/Bath LOOFAHS work amazing to help soap up your new puppy. Brushing is extremely important so mats do not form! They are so common behind the ears! A slicker brush works the best when brushing their hair. Curlier puppies will “poof” out when brushed. I also recommend a metal comb to follow the slicker brush- brushing. I recommend you file/sand your new puppies nails every week, to keep them in perfect length. A dremel tool works best, but there are also nail sanders on Amazon-Walmart that work amazing! I will post a link in the comments to the one I use from Amazon. POTTY TRAIN- Puppies are use to potty turf, and trips outside. That does not mean they are “potty trained” when they come home to you. They go potty immediately after they eat and wake up. If they play while out to go potty, they become distracted and won’t go, then as soon as they are brought inside, they will potty. Make sure they don’t play when you first take them outside. NIP/CHEW- Your new puppy is a puppy, and they love to chew! They are teething. Redirect when they try to chew on you or something that is not a toy. Offer plenty of teething options! Chewing and nipping is normal behavior of a puppy, but something that definitely needs corrected early. Chew toys are great deterrent. NO RAWHIDE and keep an eye on “rope” toys. They may seem great, but can be shredded and strings ingested. JUMPING- Puppies get excited and they want to jump and play. It is normal, but definitely needs corrected early. PARVOVIRUS- Please understand that puppies are not 100% protected against parvo until they are 15-16 weeks old. It is super important to keep them away from areas that may be infected. The ground and floors in and around you vet office is especially at risk. It is important to not “walk” you puppy around. Carry them in and hold them. Pet stores and other pet friendly stores pose the same threats. LIFETIME BREEDER SUPPORT- I am always available and will gladly help answer any and all questions you may have. I am so happy to answer anything to the best of my ability. No matter how silly or complicated, rest assured, I am here for you and your baby!
