Yes! she's already got one


2.Always a potty place in her area until she is completely house broken...which you do-awesome!

3.Double check all the toys etc in her play pen are completely safe for her to have while unsupervised...of course you don't have a collar on her right?
[COLOR="rgb(72, 61, 139)"]Yup! she only has pet stages toys in her pen when i'm gone. no sqeakers or soft toys allowed when im not with her.


4. Have your emergency dog first aid kit right there when you walk in the door in-case you come into an emergency-also have your vet's phone number written on it I found out myself how much you need both your dog emergency first aid kit readily available as well as the vet's number handy in a panic you don't have a second to spare searching for things. make sure you have nutrical or karo in it, along with the basics-also scissor if it doesn't come with it.
[COLOR="rgb(72, 61, 139)"]I have something known as nutri+gen which is like nutrical and the vet said it does the same job. I have bandaids and scissors & a syringe. What else do I need for the pet? Vet's number is on speed dial & there is a vet near my house that is open until midnight.[/COLOR]

5. what's a puppy relaxation cd? I just leave my tv on but many people a radio-hearing people's voices seems soothing to them...especially a favorite radio station you listen to...she's seems old enough a ticking clock under her bed or a stuffy that makes heartbeat sounds might be unnecessary and more of a crutch if she's not using it already...
[COLOR="rgb(72, 61, 139)"]I was googling random things about puppies & puppy care (its been long since i had a puppy and i was a child myself...) and i found some articles on it. The relaxation music for dogs comprises of really weird very 20th century sounds that apparently helps soothe dogs. However one thing is certain, when I'm h ome we will not be listening to it together because I'm not a big fan of the 20th century music and i used to have nightmares about them when i took 20th century music history course back in university. But I do leave the TV on just on an education channel because its just talking and no sudden surprises or what not. [/COLOR]


Sounds like you have a pretty great set up doing and are getting an even better one in the near future...just double check all the little things, improvement is always good! best of luck! Post pics we want to see!
