How to prepare your home for your puppy! This family has children and runs an in-home daycare, so they've been very thoughtful about preparations for their new Pointer pup. They gave me permission to share their preparation photos!
Kitchen table pre-puppy preparations
Smaller table put in to make room for puppy :)
Up close photo of pup's eating zone.
Food storage !
Treats for training, to be used along side her regular meal kibble.
Making room in the family room for our new family member!
Lucky to have such a handy husband. He made this beautiful frame for pup's doggy bed.
Toy storage and a few of pups toys. Lots of different textures to hopefully curb chewing on furniture ha ha. Ducky, kong rubber dental chew, antler, bully stick, nylabone, and whatever that orange thing is called ;)
