The first days at home

Take one or two empty jugs when you pick up the puppy. Fill them with water from the breeder’s place. This is the water to which the puppy has grown accustomed. Put the water in the puppy’s dish upon arrival at your home. Immediately refill the water jug with water from your own tap. After several days, the puppy will be entirely weaned onto your own local tap water. Do not assume that your tap water is the same. Puppy’s systems are very sensitive at this time and will throw up all too easily.
