Ideal Home
A home prepared for the joys and challenges of raising a puppy. This includes understanding that puppies require a flexible schedule for potty training, as they can only hold it for one hour per month of age. Continued crate training until at least one year old is recommended to prevent chewing. Socialization with a variety of positive experiences is crucial for a well-adjusted dog. Please be aware that raising a puppy is equivalent to having a human toddler and requires at least a full year to develop into a calmer, well-adjusted dog. Patience, appropriate toys, socialization, and obedience training are essential and can be time-consuming and expensive.
