    |

Hi
I know all the basic things to get but there are so very many extra bits , so many adverts.
I just wondered if there was one thing that you have got that you think is money well spent. Maybe something you wish you had got sooner, or wish you had seen when your dog was a puppy.
Thanks

Got the crate befor we got Brodie so hes been using it happily since day 1

Vet bed to go in the crate. Get two or three bits, as then if the pup does have an accident, you always have another bit to hand to line the crate with.
A sturdy, heavy water bowl, as Lab pups do love a good paddle. Oh and a bucket and mop, to mop up after paddling pup, if you haven't already got one  .
Things to avoid getting ..... PUPPY PADS. They are the work of the Devil .
