First Time Dog Owner by soladavies(op): 3:55pm On Apr 17, 2024
Good afternoon everyone, I saw a dog few days ago while driving and I parked to negotiate the amount, when I didn't agree to seller's price I decided to leave, my 2yrs old son started crying because he has started playing with the dog during the negotiation, so I had to get the dog for him, the seller said it's a 6 weeks old German Shepherd puppy, I will attach her pictures. We brought her home three days ago, and the experience has been interesting with the puppy and my son running around the compound, we also gave her the first shot of the DPPH vaccine yesterday and we named her Bella, I am open to advice on her care and feeding from dog expert in the house.

She is very playful, always running around and familiarizing with her new environment, she cried all night when I put her in the cage for the first two days, but today she stopped crying, guess she is getting used to her new home. She made an attempt to bark this morning while cleaning her cage, it was surprising, I don't think puppies can bark, I have never own a dog so I didn't know.

Thank you so much, I look forward to it also, I am open to suggestions on her feeding to make her grow into full potential.

I can bet that dog is not 6 weeks old. Probably 11 weeks. Make sure you give the dog the right vaccines. Congratulations

Thank you, she will take the second shot of the vaccine in 2 weeks time, we have dewormed her and she is on multivitamin as advised by the vet doctor
