Wow! You've already gotten all of the answers I would have given so I don't have much to add, but here goes...
I think they are easy to bathe because they are so small and mine loves the blow dryer because he likes being "warm"!
I worried a lot in the beginning about stepping on them, but we have also never had an accident of any serious nature. It seems they do learn to get out of the way as they get older. We've steeped on toes a couple of times, but no injuries. You also have to watch for things that can fall over on them or doors that close automatically, etc. I heard that recliners area hazard too. They are just like having a toddler in the house and you have to puppy proof like you would child proof if you had a child. Supervision is the key. It gets easier as they get older.
I also don't use a crate so I cannot advise in that area and I would think your puppy would use wee wee pads in your parent's house once he/she knows where they are.
Good luck! |
