It is important to prepare your home before bringing home a puppy. There are several things you will need to do in order to make your home and yard safe.  

• ​Puppies like to chew on things. Be sure to put away items that your puppy could swallow or choke on. 
• Move all electrical cords off the floor or out of reach.
• Examine your fence to make sure there are no places where your puppy could escape.
