Host: What can I do to prepare my family when I adopt a new dog?
Kevin Simpson: Most importantly, make sure the whole family is onboard and is consistent. And this holds it through for pretty much everything across the board. Make sure your whole family welcomes this new pet and that’s a decision of one family member, but everything is excited and eager for the new addition to the family.
Make sure everybody is onboard and consistent when it concerns rules and training that the dog may have to abide to. Make sure everybody is onboard and consistent when it comes to the dog’s necessary care who’s going to be taking care of the dog whether who’s going to be feeding the dog, who’s going to be walking the dog.
At that, they may want to start self-educating on the specific breed of dog that they’re adopting to developmental stages, depending on the dog’s age again, proper care of the pets. They can also make sure that everybody is onboard as far as giving the dog some space when you he first moves into your home. Often, everybody is very eager and passionate about building their relationship up with their new edition, their newly adopted dog.
And often as dogs need a transition period that they just settled in sort of acclimate to their surroundings, the friendship will grow but to give it some time and not to over indulge and try to force that on the dog right away.
