LET'S GET YOU AND YOUR PUP STARTED ON THE RIGHT FOOT!

Preparation is one of the hallmarks of any successful endeavor. On this page, you will find all the pertinent information to get you started on the right foot when you bring your pup home!

Congratulations on your new family member! Don’t hesitate to reach out if there’s anything I can do to be supportive.

🐾 The Health of Your Pup

When it comes to your pup’s health, our goal is simple: support strong, resilient dogs from the inside out. We do not routinely vaccinate puppies unless specifically requested. We prefer to work with a puppy’s developing immune system rather than overwhelm it early on.

We follow a delayed vaccine schedule and support puppies with homeopathic Parvo and Distemper nosodes, recommended until your pup is around 9 months old. Knowledge is empowering πŸ’›

Vaccination Schedule

🐾 Potty Training

Potty trips are more frequent any time pup drinks water. As they grow, so does their bladder’s ability. It’s a lot of consistency but remember you’re laying groundwork for an incredible family dog!

🐾 Turf Area Training

Your pup is 100% potty trained to eliminate on a turf area. This is also helpful to keep them off the grass and prevent illness until they are up to date on their vaccines. We use Eco Strong Odor Eliminator to keep the turf clean.

🐾 Crate Training

A crate is a must! If your pup is out of the crate, connect pup to your hip with a leash. Keep it cozy with enough room to lay down and turn around but no more β€” if too much room is given, pup will have accidents.

🐾 Feeding Your Pup

We feed Kirkland Signature Puppy Food in the yellow bag, but also support Diamond Natural and Taste of the Wild. Our favorite treats are from Costco β€” bully sticks and freeze-dried liver treats. Our dogs have sensitive tummies to scraps.

🐾 Obedience Training

We encourage pup parents to start obedience training right away β€” it’s “sanity insurance”! Also start socializing your pup by exposing them to different places, people, sights, smells, textures, and sounds.

🐾 Grooming

Sheepadoodles do not shed β€” rather they mat up, which can be very painful. Proper brushing and grooming need to be part of your weekly routine. Once a month professional grooming is recommended.

My groomer is Kim Pultz β€” 503-887-4410. I’ve trusted her for five years and she’s part of the OG Life Unleashed Family!
