TODAY IS THE DAY!
I get my baby shih tzu today woOhOo! I'm so excited. With that in mind I have a few questions!!!
1) The trip to go home from the breeder's is approximately 15-20 minutes long. Should I put the dog on my lap? Should I bring the crate with me?
2) The Breeder had told me that she already brought the puppy for his 'second round' of shots. What do those usually include - what are the next shots I should get, and the time frame on when I should get those shots. I've asked the breeder for all copies of paperwork regarding vet visits, shots, etc.. so I'll be able to give you all more details.
3) This might be a dumb question but is it okay to have music played at the house, and have a lot of people socialize with the puppy? I don't know if loud music will be a problem for him or if he'll get shocked with the music and the people. I don't want him to get freaked out at his first day home.
4) About the food - I'm getting Innova for him, but will the change in his food be okay? He's so used to eating what the breeder's have given him so I am scared that he might not eat.
Thanks for everyone's times to answer these questions. Just want to make sure I am super perpared!
Thanks!
