Essential items for a New Puppy. Water bowl and food bowl.
Getting a new puppy is exciting for the entire family. However, it is also stressful. If you decided to have a new puppy, take a chance to do research. Before bringing the puppy home, be prepared in advance with essential gear to make the transition less stressful. Here are some essential items – a crate, puppy bowls, leash, collar with tag, food, toys, brush, shampoo, books on training, and puppy dodo pads. All of that may seem like a lot; however, you will use each item the first hour after bringing the puppy home. Also, make sure that you have ordered an ID tag, which usually includes the puppy’s name, owner’s phone number, and name. You may add the address too. It depends on what kind of breed you chose.

A small collar is essential for a small dog, but you may need a more significant collar and upgrade in 6 months for a bigger breed. The same goes for the leash, water, and food bowl.
