Posted: Sun Feb 05, 2012 5:54 pm Post subject: My pups stuff!
Ive just subsribed here, I have posted a thread in introductions
I want to show you the stuff I have already got for my puppy.
before the pup arrives I am planning on also getting:
- 36inch crate
- Puppy kong
- Nylabone keys
- Rope tug
- Food (Hills science plan)
- Puppy collar and name tag
Is there anything else that you can think of that will be good?
Blimey you are organised!
Our cooper loved and still loves soft toys to snuggle up with. We found kids soft toys, that are stiff so they sit/lie in position (if that makes sense) last much longer than any you can get at pet shops. We get ours from charity shops (or if you have a hubby like mine who likes to rummage in skips!!!).
Just take off tags and plastic eyes etc.
Lots of towels and kitchen roll. (puppy pads are generally thought to be a hindrance to housetraining)
A kong is a really good idea to keep your pup occupied. You can stuff them with all sorts and gives them something to think about.
If you're like me, that crate will be arranged and rearranged umpteen times until Easter.
Very organised indeed! Yes I think you just need more towels and more blankets you might also want some bio washing powder or a special spray for accidents and spills. Ooh and maybe some kind of restraint for the car depending on what you drive and if you're likely to go out and about in the car.
I'd go for a 42" crate if I were you - my boy outgrew his 36" one by the time he was 7 months old
Is it Hills Science that he's being fed at the moment with the breeder?
Oh, lots of cardboard boxes - they were Blue's favourite toy when he was little.
The reasons why i am going to fr 36inch are that the mum is the smallest lab i have seen and dad is also quite small, they are working strain and ive only got a 36inch gap to put it!
The breeder said they pups will be raised on hills science plan - she did say she would give us some but that wont last long and i don't want to change the food too early.

I have got some bio washing powder - I neutralized it a few weeks back. Ive got 2 of the fleece blankets and ive got an old towel to go over the top at night.
poo bags
brush / nail clippers / ear cleaner / toothpaste (always good to get them used to being groomed from an early age)
flea and worm stuff (it's been years since I had a pup, but don't they need doing fairly regularly?)
