bringing home a new puppy


Moreover, pet insurance or pet health insurance is one such imperative you cannot ignore at all.

When you look into the innocent eyes of a puppy, your heart melts. It is probably the best decision to welcome a puppy into your life.

Humans are not devoid of emotions, we are all rooted in them. We want to attach to someone who gives us a feeling of being wanted, appreciated, and of course, loved. No wonder pets have always managed to fill the void in many people’s lives.

Bringing a pet home is an emotional decision but it involves many practicalities too.

There are quite a few essentials you should be aware of while bringing home a puppy.

Why invest in pet insurance?

Insurance is not a cost; it is an investment in your pet’s health. Pet medical insurance will assist you in paying medical bills that can run into high amounts, unaffordable at times.

You might decide to pay for the medical expenses out of your pocket whenever your pet faces health issues. If you wish to forgo premium amounts you think are too high, then it is an unwise decision. Medical expenses will run into higher amounts as compared to the premium amounts.

In addition, if your pet suffers from a serious health issue and you cannot afford the medical expenses, you do not want to be left with the guilt of not being able to treat your pet.

Dog medical insurance takes care of most of the health expenses thus, assuring that you have given the best health care to your pet.

So dog health insurance for your puppy is an investment, not a cost.

 

Other essentials for your puppy:

 

Leash

We recommend that you obtain a lightweight 4 to 6-foot nylon leash as well as a training leash. You can also buy convertible leather leashes while raising your puppy.

Collar

Instead of fancy puppy collars, go for a simple nylon buckle collar. After all, your puppy will outgrow the collar quite fast.

Name Tags

You can order tags online or go to a local pet store to make a tag for your puppy the day you take him or her home. Two essential things that every name tag should include: pet name and a phone number in case your puppy gets lost. It is also a good idea to get your puppy microchipped in case he or she loses their collar.

Chews

Your puppy is going to chew many of your things at home like clothes, shoes, hands, feet, and just about anything that they can sink grab with their teeth. Get a good dog chew for your little one to redirect these unwanted actions until your puppy matures and ultimately sheds those cute puppy teeth.

Dog Bowls

Just a simple, stainless-steel food and water bowl would be enough - do not make it too complicated and purchase an excess of them out of excitement.

Dog Brush

You need to bring a specialized comb or brush depending upon the breed of your puppy for a well-groomed look. With long-haired pups, if you do not comb its fur, you’ll soon be dealing with a knotted mess.

Bedding

Create a soft layer for bedding using blankets, towels, or bed sheets. You may also find a chew-resistance bed at your local pet store. Don’t be surprised if you find yourself buying a replacement bed as your pup is likely to chew it up – it’s very normal.

While you have been all excited running around to welcome your puppy, take a moment to review the pet insurance or dog health insurance plans that TrustedPals offers.
