dog care

All about your puppy!

dog care

A new companion will need to visit the veterinarian (pet doctor) for vaccinations and a check-up. The veterinarian will tell you everything you need to know about keeping your pet healthy.

dog care

To keep your dog's coat shiny and healthy, her will need regular brushing. Ask your veterinarian which is the best type brush to use for your dog. Use gentle strokes and give him a few treats after you are done.

dog care

Always be safe when meeting new dogs. Don't assume all dogs are friendly. First ask the owner if you can pet their dog. If the owner says yes, let the dog sniff the back of your hand, then pet him under the chin.

Good pictures, but too descriptive/specific for 4 Year old

Good pictures, but too descriptive/specific for 4 Year old
Cute pictures. A little too lengthy for smaller children and too specific. Not all of the situations apply to everyone. I thought it would be more basic and broad; how to take care, how to play, etc. My 4 year old daughter was over it about a page in. The words are far too descriptive for this age. I was really hoping to use this as a tool to prepare her for a new puppy. It randomly goes into dog safety when out in public, which was interesting, but didn’t really fit the title or need in the book I felt. Also, felt like that would make my daughter afraid of dogs. I mean I’m all about realistic teaching, but the book is “how to care for YOUR DOG.” Talks about puppy proofing the home, moving unsafe plants, etc., which was not stuff that I feel like would be the role of my child to do. It is sometimes more geared towards the adult. Maybe 6 and up or even 8 and up. Any younger, I think it’s more just for the coloring aspect.

    We got this before we adopted our puppy and our son really enjoyed it. We made copies of the puppy care chart in the book and had fun checking things off as my son helped care for the new dog.

    Read the captions to my four year old grandson. I wish it would of had a section on how sharp puppies teeth are and not to pull hard. Otherwise he enjoyed the book.
