One of my co-worker recently quited her job & moved away because her husband's found a much better job in another city, so right now she's jobless. Last night, her husband came home with TWO 8-week old puppies, a maltese & a yorkie, that he's purchased at a pet store (for $1200 each :yikes for her to "play with while she's nothing to do". She's clueless about dogs & admits that she doesn't even like them - but now that she has two to care for.. She came to me for advices..
So what should I tell her? What does she needs to know in order to ease herself into her new role as dogs-owner? (I already told her that dogs are not toys to keep when you feel like it, and dump when you loose interests, and that she should socialize the dogs & enroll them in puppy's training session & take them to the vet for vaccination...). I also told her that she needs to LOVE the dogs because they depend on her love to thrive..
What else?
