| What else would you recommend? I will be getting my furbaby Jax in 5 weeks. I have bought everything I think I'll need, but wanted to see if I overlooked something. Here is my list. Nutri-cal puppy, bed, Xpen, lots of toys, Yorkie Yummies (treats), Wellness (dry kibble), water and food bowls, outfits, Small Dog Slicker/Bristle Brush and Combs, neem oil to mix with shampoo, Carriers ( one for his mom and one for me which is also a car seat), hardness, collar (only for tag), leashes, and tags. Is there anything else you would recommend I get before I get him? At the momment I'm looking for a vet that is comfortable in small breeds.

| You might need some nail clippers or a nail grinder. You might also need some pee pads. I've heard the washable ones are the best. Good luck! |

| Sounds like you have it pretty much covered. Maybe you could use some potty pads. If you can train him to use them in addition to potty training outside, they will come in handy. I take them whenever I take Walker on road trips and stay in a hotel. They are more likely to pee on a familiar surface then on city concrete Also great when the weather is bad(snow,cold,rain,etc) or when they are sick and don't want to move much. I also got some rounded scissors in case I had to trim the hair that tends to fall right over their eyes. Other then that, I can't think of anything to add to your list. You've done your homework well! Can't wait to see pictures of your new furbaby. Good luck and welcome to YT!!

| I just thought of something else. The little battery operated Wahl trimmer for under the tail, between the pads of the feet or around the ears. I also bought some thinning shears when I first started cutting Sophie myself. It allowed to get the feel for cutting without doing much damage . I let you know I think of anything else. |

| Why thank you. His mom says he looks like me. Not sure what she means... I know I couldn't have thought up of everything. If you have it and use it, tell me about. I want to make sure I don't forget anything.
