How to Prepare Your Home for a Puppy

Remove electrical cords, toxic plants and small objects from reach. Arrange a quiet sleeping area and washable bedding, then agree household rules before arrival. Introduce new rooms gradually and supervise young children. Ask your veterinarian how to balance early socialisation with infection risks while vaccinations are incomplete. Reward calm exploration rather than forcing contact.
