welcome to the site.. you can NEVER feel prepare
it must be what having a baby feels like! but you came to the right place.. any possible situation you find yourself in.. someone on here has been through it.... you really dont' need much when your baby comes home... she will probably be a bit upset day one and two.. layla was not a happy girl ... i imagine the breeder will give you some food she has been giving the puppies... a crate would be GREAT!! layla loved it when she came home.. felt safe and secure..and it would be great if the breeder would give you something from her home with the smell of the puppy's mom and her siblings.. layla STILL plays with the toy she got when she left. Good luck and remmeber that first night might not go so well. but we are here for support
