Re: new boxer puppy

Looking forward to meeting your pup

Re the PDSA - I think you will find that the PDSA only help those that are in financail need - and would image that it is maybe means tested. Take my advise and take out insurance.

As for what to buy - not too much initially, a bet - (I use vet bed) if you are going to crate train you'll need a crate pretty quick. water and food bowls, maybe a toy to keep him company at night and on to play with also, collar lead (no great rush) some people prefer to put a collar on immediately to get the dog used to it - I have never had a problem and don't used one until they are around 12 weeks
regards

Re: new boxer puppy

Hi boxers are lovely my mate as two.

I brought my puppy a cuddle dog from Pets at Home. I put it in her basket the first night and she cuddles up to it all the time now. Now and again it gets a good chew ha ha. I Think she thinks its real.

Don't forget pictures of your puppy when you get him.

Oh almost forgot - if you havn't got a vet then seek a good one out and get the pup registered, assuming he is 8.10 weeks he will have been wormed but will need doing agin at 12 weeks.
Re the collar - did nt mena to mislead you - ?I should have said I do not leave a collar on 24/7 until they are older

I know how you feel once you have picked them you just want to have them home so you can cuddle them and give them lots of love.

If you are wanting to know if your pup is KC registered, you really need to ask the breeder. Pedigree papers and KC papers are totally different.

Some dogs come with pedigree papers but aren't KC registered.
