How to make sure you're ready for your new pup?

Have you met Oops?Did you know puppy other spelling is: A.D.O.R.A.B.L.E?

Oops is a lovely Golden Retriever recently adopted by his new family. They couldn't be happier when they eventually picked him up ! Everybody fell in love at first sight. Afterall, who wouldn't? Puppies are easy to fall in love with, but if you want to be a paw-some parent and give the best start your puppy deserves, there are certain things you need to know

Fear not: Oops will teach you the best tricks to become the best human a dog can have.

My new parents came to pick me up in the morning. I had barely woken up, when they took me to my new home so we could spend the whole day together!

I'm sad to leave my mother. I hope my new family will be nice oh, hello you!

As soon as I arrived, they took me on a toilet break outside and then my new mum gave me a treat. It was just a wee break though. Anyway, if they want to treat me when I go to the toilet in the garden, I'll toilet outside more! Then, I was introduced to the whole family. Everybody looked over the moon - not because they are big compared to me, but because they looked happy!

I took my teddy bear along with me when I left my mum. The smell reminds me of her and comforted me after the adoption.

Despite all the fuss my new family made over my arrival, I must say I was a little scared and sad at the beginning. I had left my sisters, my brothers and most of all my mum. Fortunately, my parents took a blanket and my teddy bear I had when I was a baby, and put it in something they called my room. They had made the area so cosy with my very own blanket, a comfy bed and a couple toys I fell asleep straight away when they left me there for the night. The journey to my new home, the walk and introductions to the family and the house were great, but dear Dog, that was exhausting!

Today was filled with emotions. I'll take a nap in my new comfy bed my parents got for me. Sweet dreams!

I didn't have my mom anymore, but I already feel safe with my new family.
