WELCOMING NEW PUPPY HOME

1. Have patience

It typically takes 2-3 weeks for a dog to start adjusting to a new home, but it can take up to 3 months for full adjustment. 

2. Keep your house calm

Your puppy may be feeling stressed by the new sights, sounds, and smells, and the separation from their mother So keep your house very calm to avoid adding to this stress.

3. Prepare crate and home taking away dangerous things puppy can chew

Once your puppy is home, supervise it closely. Only give him/her access to areas where you can watch it. You may want to use baby gates or locking wood gates to keep your puppy close. Try using a crate if you have to leave it alone, so puppy doesn't get into anything while you're gone.

4. House training

Now is the time to start house training. Some puppies may need to be taken outside as frequently as every two or three hours. They also would need  to go potty within 10 minutes of a meal or a big drink; every time after waking up; can potty at new place. Routine helps, so keep feeding times and sleep times the same if you can.

Also you can use puppy diapers.

5. Reward good behavior

Focus on rewarding only good behavior. Pet your puppy when he's sleeping. Give him a treat when he's resting quietly, so he knows that he gets attention when he's calm. Ignore him if he's barking (unless it's to go potty). Dogs will do the action that gets the attention, so it's good to start training him early. If you ignore your puppy when he's quiet and only pay attention to him when he barks, then he may feel less obliged to act calmly in the future.

6. Bed time

 Try creating a quiet and dark environment where they can sleep. The dog could be easily startled by loud noises or lights, which may be why they appear restless during the night. 

Puppies recently separated from their siblings or mother may need extra comfort as they adjust to their new environment. To help them in this process, consider purchasing one or two stuffed toys and a blanket they can cuddle. We gift blanket with siblings and mother smell and snuggle puppy toy ( with heart beat) you can put inside puppy’s crate to help him feel safer.


7. Puppy anxiety

All puppies are crying during first nights in new homes due to new environment, new smell, fear, staying without siblings and mother. These are some tips to help the puppy:

- Day exercises: Puppies have a lot of energy, and if they don't get enough physical activity during the day, they may become hyperactive at night.


- Your first step in combating a canine's nighttime stress is to stop offering incentives for inappropriate behavior. Giving comfort each time your dog acts inappropriately only rewards your pup's insecurity. Albright states that another no-no is allowing your dog to sleep in your bed. Although this may be fine for well-adjusted canines, it can reinforce negative feelings if your dog experiences severe anxiety. A better option would be to keep a crate or dog bed by your bed, gradually moving it farther away each night.

- If you have tried multiple tactics, bit still have no luck , consider to visit your vet for calming ads to be prescribed.

8. Start enforcing rules

Although it may seem too early to you, he needs to learn the house rules from the very beginning. The more structured and consistent his day is, the better adjusted he’ll be. 

Whether it’s chewing or any other behavior you don’t want to encourage , use gentle redirection. Yelling at him or punishing him will only frighten and confuse him, not teach him. Remember that he is only just starting to learn what’s expected of him. Praising good behavior and deflecting unacceptable behavior is an effective way of helping him learn. Most of all, take things slowly. Gradually expand his environment, under your supervision, of course. With lots of affectionate contact with the family, consistent rules and routine, rewards for good behavior and gentle corrections for unacceptable behaviors, he’ll quickly learn his place in his new “pack.” Not only that but, And most importantly, as he adjusts to his new environment, you will establish a bond that will endure throughout his life.
