Yes.........you will need:

**a bed...something soft and cuddly and comfy

**pee-pee pads...have them out in a few places when you arrive home..show him the pads FIRST THING.....will likely forget but maybe.....

**food & water bowls...in a nice, quiet area..out of traffic or busy place

**a big stuffed toy...fun to play with or lay on

**a couple squeaky toys....something really tiny that he can hold

**a comb/brush...occ begin to groom to allow him to learn about the process

******a tube of Nutra-cal/Nutra Stat...for the likely episodes of hypoglycemia

**some baby wipes...for rear end clean ups.."runny clingers"

**an old shirt you have worn for days and days and not washed....he can have your scent...try to get some kind of blanket/rag from his mom, too.

**a crate or kennel...his place to sleep or go to feel safe/quiet...(you will need somewhere to confine him occasionally)

**a camera and several rolls of film....or digital memory space.....


NO!!!!!!!!!

Don't take him out anywhere soon.....especially pet-type store......I know you will want to show him off but until vaccinations are complete he is very vunerable to illness....something like parvo could kill such a fragile puppy.
(I did take Lil Bit for an occ ride in the car..just to get used to riding)...
