Introducing a new pet into your family is an exciting time, but there are lots of things to consider to give your new pet the best possible start.
Your new puppy
During the first few weeks of your puppy being at home, they are in a vital development period known as the socialisation window. This is a time where we can introduce new experiences to them so they are not scared by them in later life. This socialisation checklist is a great way to ensure your pup encounters everything they need to be a balanced and sociable adult dog.
Your pup will need vaccinations to protect them against disease. Our puppy pack, which gives your new pup everything they need to get a happy and healthy start to their time with you, includes all of this for just £90:
- Primary vaccination course
- Full health check with one of our vets
- 4 weeks free pet insurance
- Microchip placement
- Royal Canin puppy food
- Parasite treatment (flea, worm and lungworm prevention)
- 10% off neutering
- Puppy development checks with our nurse team
We love to meet new puppies, and want to make sure that as well as being happy and healthy, they enjoy their visits to the practice. That’s why every puppy pack includes consults with our nurses while they are growing up. This is the perfect way to ensure your pup is growing at the right rate, keep up to date with their parasite control and get them to realise that coming to the vets isn’t a scary thing!
