Puppy Amazon List!

Not all of these items are needed but many of our puppy families ask what I use for grooming, traveling, and detoxing small dogs when having vaccines. So here is my shopping cart. The doodle grooming kit, dremel, ear har powder, dog clippers, and Marshmello is a must have from the get go. The slobber stopper bowl reduces wet beard dribbles all over the floor.

​

At about 7 to 9 months when your puppy transitions to their adult coat I would make the investment in the two Chris Christensen brushes. If you are at this stage check the grooming page for line brushing instructions. This is also the time I would switch your pup to a rolled leather collar, less friction equals less matting around the neck area and behind the ears.

I like buying one kennel and done. So I like a wire kennel with a divide wall that can expand as puppy grows so they don't have so much room that they pee in it. For our micro minis I suggest a 24" our minis 30" and our mediums a 36" wire kennel with a divider should work from day one. Many past clients say their pup did really well with a kennel cover which is posted above. The play pen is not needed for most, but is great for your puppy to have a contained play area when you are cooking or need to focus on that Zoom meeting but they want to have a safe area to not chew on cords but not be locked in their bedtime kennel.

​

Outdoor playpen link was requested for many of our RVing families who want a safe area for their dog to go potty without instant access to the entire campground or neighboring dogs.

 

The detox drops helps puppies release the heavy metals from vaccines. A great dane puppy and a 2.5lb micro mini ALD puppy get the same dosage. This helps the liver with detoxing I recommend giving the day before vaccines, day of, and for three days after.

​

Many of our past clients are tired of the old rope potty bells and like the sleek door bell button better also it helps that the button can be programmed for different tunes and you can put the alarm portion in an outlet closer to where you are so you can hear that your dog needs to go out. All they do is boop their noise on it. 

​

Carrying a puppy till 16 weeks everywhere can get tiring. Many of our micro and mini clients like a little sling or dog purse for the first 2 months home. Great way to socialize pup without comprising health. But as some of our retired clients or busy families the toddler humans need carried too and a dog stroller for those medium pups that are pushing 20lbs by 4 months old are too big to carry all ay at an event. Some clients like a pup stroller so they can go on their normal socializing of puppy without breaking their back. The one above is the cheapest on the market with great reviews to be used for those first few months

​

When you start dog training in our group classes there are a few items you will need. First a 6' COTTON flat leash. Cotton will be easier on your hand and if you come with a nylon leash it will be the first thing Shannon wants you to replace. So grab the correct training leash from the get go three colors to choose from. We also have 20 foot and 30 foot leash on the list for easy learning of recall "here" command. as you say here you can gently lead your dog into you as repeating the command.

​

Some of our pups live in condos or sky rise apartments downtown New York and potty training on the 5th floor can be hard so our puppies are astroturf trained and astroturf potty stations are easy transition for our pups.
