8 Week Old Puppies

Most puppies come home with a HUGE transition!

​It's critical to visit a veterinarian immediately after adoption so we can talk you through some common pit-falls and provide tips for success.

​Topics we will cover are:
  • The gentle approach to housetraining using the Puppy-Centric Method
  • Creating a safe space in your home for your puppy
  • The critical socialization of your puppy (hint, it's happening now!)
  • Proper nutrition - what to feed, how much, and when
  • Deworming schedule
  • Vaccination schedule

Most puppies come vaccinated & dewormed, so we'll adjust our plan as needed, but if we're starting from scratch, most puppies receive:
  • Distemper/Parvo Vaccine #1 of 3
  • Oral Bordetella Vaccination
  • Start monthly heartworm prevention, continue for life
  • Intestinal parasite deworming (given at home at 10 weeks)
  • Microchip with lifetime registration

12 Week Old Puppies

This is when your puppies personality really starts to shine! It's also when housetraining & crate training start to become critical to keeping your little rascal safe. Topics we typically cover:
  • Phase training of potty training and utilizing the crate
  • Transitioning to less frequent meal feedings
  • Early obedience
  • Safe and appropriate chew toys
  • Communication challenges - what is your puppy trying to tell you? 
  • How much exercise is too much exercise?

We'll continue our medical management with the most common protocol being:
  • Distemper/Parvo Vaccine #2 of 3
  • Leptospirosis Vaccine #1 of 2
  • Continue monthly heartworm prevention
  • Intestinal parasite deworming (given at home at 14 weeks)
  • Consider flea/tick prevention depending on season

16 Week Old Puppies

Your puppy's graduating! This is the final puppy visit for most pets. We will cover:
  • Trouble shooting any housetraining challenges
  • When to transition to adult food
  • Spay/Neuter timing
  • Obedience and behavioral tips and training
  • When can we stop restricting exercise?

We'll continue our medical management with the most common protocol being:
  • Distemper/Parvo Vaccine #3 of 3, 1 year duration
  • Leptospirosis Vaccine #2 of 2, 1 year duration
  • Rabies Vaccination, 1 year duration
  • Continue monthly heartworm prevention for life (may need to change weight classes as puppy grows)
  • Consider flea/tick prevention depending on season
