Description
Bringing a new dog home is equal parts exciting and terrifying! Whether you have a brand new puppy, a rescue, or an older dog, the first week home is critical because it sets the tone for everything that follows. In this video, Kayl walks you through exactly what to expect from the car ride home, the first 30 minutes inside your house, nighttime routines, and how to survive the first day without overwhelming your new companion. We also cover the most common mistake new owners make: giving their dog too much freedom too soon. Learn how to balance supervision, structure, and bonding to ensure a smooth transition for you and your new dog!
