| New Puppy coming home in a month Hi, I am new to this forum but I am enjoying all the wonderful support and information you all give to one another. I am surprising my two teenage daughters with a female yorkie in late May. Her name is Gia. My question for all of you is this - what items do you recommend that I have for her, I know my breeder will tell me this too but I wanted your advice as well. What car carrier do you recommend, type of crate etc. Thanks for the information and I will post pictures as soon as I get her home. |

| Hello and welcome to Yorkie Talk! I love the name Gia! It rhymes with Tia (my puppy's name ) As to things to have on hand: Crate, potty pads (if you plan to train on them), toys, food, nutrical, puppy shampoo, treats (I use cheerios and yogurt drops). As to the type of crate, I personally use the plastic ones. Tia, the puppy's, has a grate on the top that she can see through. I also have a bigger crate in our living room that both of my girls sleep in while we watch TV. Good luck with your new Yorkie - I hope you post pictures as soon as you can!

| What a CUTE name! Isn't it nice when you have a puppy before you have to pick it up! I pick mine up in about 2 weeks. You should have food/water bowl, crate, crate pad, food, grooming supplies (puppy shampoo, brush, nail trimmers etc), leesh and collar or harness, toys. Hope this helps a little. As to the type of crate, I have the wire ones where the dog can completely see out. I don't like the thought of keeping them in plastic crates where they can only see out the very front. Just my personal preference.
