It's great that you're trying to plan ahead and make sure you're asking good questions! I'm not sure what breed you're looking at, but in general, I would definitely consider saving up a bit to purchase a puppy from a reputable breeder if you can. Even if the purchase price is a bit higher than a puppy from an online ad, getting a pup from a more reliable source can save you a lot of heartache (and money!) down the line by avoiding costly health issues and behavioral problems due to poor breeding. If you do opt to go ahead and purchase a puppy through on ad online, I would talk to the breeder/seller about the following things: 1) Make sure the puppies are AKC registered. Even if you want "just a pet", no responsible breeder would be breeding dogs that aren't AKC registered. It's a big red flag that you're dealing with a puppy mill or really careless backyard breeder. 2) Ask what health clearances the puppies' parents have had, and ask to see documentation. Depending on the br

You can try HomeoPet for anxiety. They sell it at PetCo. For my terrified puppy mill dog I used the supplement Solliquin. Another product people recommend is rescue remedy. A pheromone diffuser can help as well. My dog took several years to relax in our home. I recommend having places for Brandy to hide and get away when she wants. Letting her come to you and not forcing the situation is best. Have treats and toys available to get her interested in being with you. My boy was much worse when picked up or restrained. He does better when he can get on the couch and sit with me as long as I don’t physically hold him or pick him up. The best thing for him was taking him to obedience class. He loved being with other dogs and learned quickly. He became more confident and relaxed from the classes. Be patient, neglect at a young age can be difficult to overcome, it will take time and lots of love. I’m so glad you’re taking care of Brandy. Thanks for using Boop by Petco to help y

The premium and super premium brands typically use higher quality ingredients (named protein sources, no meat meals, etc.) and have less fillers or additives. The discount or store brands frequently use lower quality ingredients as well as grains in addition to more fillers and additives. These ingredients may contribute to allergies and increased inflammation in a pet. That said, if a pet won't eat a premium brand or suffers GI upset from them, then all those positives won't matter. I always recommend feeding the best quality food you can afford, is easy to buy and that a pet will eat and does well on. If that happens to be a lower quality diet, so be it. The website www.dogfoodadvisor.com an excellent resource for researching and comparing diets.

Nikki is adorable! Thanks for including pictures! Yes, PetSmile is expensive, but it is one of the only toothpastes to actually be approved by the Veterinary Oral Health Council. Here is a list of their approved products. http://www.vohc.org/VOHCAcceptedProductsTable_Dogs.pdf PetSmile is what I use with my dogs. (Last year they ran a 25% off sale before Christmas, so I stocked up!) Yes, it is fine to use Dawn on Nikki's feet daily, but I suspect any gentle cleaner would be fine as well. You may have to experiment to find the best shampoo for her. I have been very pleased with EarthBath products, so you might want to try their Oatmeal and Aloe shampoo for itch relief. https://earthbath.com/product/oatmeal-aloe-shampoo/ There are also prescription itch relief shampoo and conditioner products if needed that you can talk to your vet about. Good luck! I hope that was helpful and answered your questions. Thanks for using Boop by Petco.

Por favor, perdona mi horrible español! ¡Hola! Si bien estamos asociados con Petco, en realidad no interactuamos con sus tiendas o sus líneas de productos, por lo que tendría que contactar a Petco directamente con su pregunta. Algunos Petcos ahora tienen servicios veterinarios y pueden llevar productos de prescripción veterinaria. Si el suyo no lo hace, puede verificar en línea si hay farmacias para mascotas en línea que se lo envíen; solo necesita que su veterinario le envíe por fax o correo electrónico su receta. Me alegra saber que la comida ZD está funcionando bien y ¡gracias por tu pregunta!
