Archie's First Day At Home!!

Hello Peeps

I'm afraid I don't have any cards today, but I hope our new puppy makes up for it!! :D  He's a gorgeous Cavalier King Charles and he's our first puppy, so if anyone has any hints and tips it'll be much appreciated! :D

Thank you for visiting us today, hopefully I'll be back with some crafting!

    Aww Kelly....how cute!!! We got our 1st puppy last year, he's now 1and a 1/2 and such fun!
    I'm with Annie.....out to the garden as often as possible :) He'll soon get the hang of it! Once you and him master this you can move onto more training :)

    Archie is totally adorable - he'll have you wound round his little paw already! It's a long time since I had puppies to train but what I do remember is that we had loads of newspaper, placed near their bed to start with, which was slowlym over time,eased towards the door and eventually out into the garden. I think you can buy trainer sheets now that serve the same purpose as newspaper but have a waterproof backing - should save some of the puddly messes. Have fun :) Elizabeth x

    Aaah he's a little doll xxxxx Loving the white tips on his paws lol.

    Kelly did your breeder give you a puppy pack hun? If so stick to the diet, training etc that she has already set in place for at least the first month. Give him lots of quiet time (one of those travel crates left with the door open where he can go and chill out is good). Hopefully the breeder will have sent a toy and a blanket with his mam's and siblings scent on which is a huge comfort to him.

    Most important is to stick to a routine that he is used to, but not too many of the hard rules please - he is a baby and people tend to lose sight of that sadly, whatever you invest in him now - love, time and training will heap the hugest of rewards. Enjoy him hun, cavvies are the BEST, most loving doggies on this planet and all they ever want to do is make you happy :)

    On fab thing is the puppy training pads, my pups are trained to use those from 3 weeks old when they are in their pen, but regular trips outside in the garden should he him housetrained soon.

    If you didn't get a puppy pack email me bevscrafts@gmail dot com and I will send you what I hand out - diet sheet, training hints and tips etc.

    Aww congrats on your new baby mommy, obviously I had to come and find him when I found your comment lol.
    He is beutiful Kelly and I love his name :) Lots of love & cuddles and training pads. I think Bev has already covered the rest already.
    Enjoy him & give him a big kiss from me
