It’s every family’s dream: you get a brand new puppy from the pet store or from an animal shelter, and everyone can’t wait to get started playing with their new friend. Around 36% to 37% of American households (or 43.3 million) have dogs, too, so you have a good chance of being well-prepared to own one. But before your puppy settles in, you’ll need the right supplies to keep him or her well-fed and well-behaved.
Fortunately, there are plenty of wholesale pet supplies companies that can deliver what you need without letting man’s best friend wait too long. From essential like dog leashes and collars to chew toys, here are some things your new pup will need when he or she joins the family.
Toys
This is one of the first things that many owners think of. Chew toys are popular for dogs so they have something to play with to stay active. However, it’s important to make sure that your new puppy understands the difference between toys and other objects in the house, like shoes, books, or other unofficial “chew toys” for dogs. Training can start early by ensuring that your pup doesn’t get into any mischief.
Dog leashes and collars
One of the most important things you can do for your dog is take him or her for regular walks. This will ensure that your dog stays active and healthy. Having the right dog leashes and collars, whether they’re leather leashes, spiked or rhinestone collars, or other accessories, can keep your dog safe. Dog collars are also a good place for a name tag for your dog, complete with your contact information.
Dog training collars
Training dog collars can be used when your puppy is first being taken on walks. You might also use these when training him or her to behave or when guiding your dog around an invisible fence for the first time.
Bowls
And, of course, your puppy will need food and water, so make sure that you have an appropriately sized bowl for these nutrients. Don’t forget to buy the right kind of food, too.
