Bringing a new puppy home marks an exciting time for any family. However, the initial week can present challenges for both the puppy and the owner. The puppy may experience anxiety, manifesting in interrupted sleep and the need for companionship. To help the puppy adjust, owners can create a comforting environment, gradually introduce alone time, and supervise explorations to ensure safety. Establishing a consistent routine, including frequent potty breaks and meal times, is crucial. Additionally, early training, such as crate training and attending puppy classes, can facilitate a smooth transition. Despite the initial chaos, with patience and adherence to schedules, the first week with a puppy ends with joy and a strong bond between the new family members.
