Tips on how to train a new pup.

Hello hive family. I feel I need to give a little information about my baby lucy.

Lucy is a Lhasa Apso breed. Like I said in my previous post, I am a dog mum. I have loved dogs since my home alone movie days. My mum didn’t allow me to have one because, I wouldn’t have been able to take care of it. I mean, I understand better now because Lucy is a jealous, over protective daughter that loves attention.

Let me backtrack to when I first got Lucy. It was last year we were all recovering from the covid lockdown, people were hopping on TikTok and trying new skills but I was bored at home and needed a friend. luckily for me, a close friend of mine’s dog gave birth and I saw this beautiful baby with larger than life eyes.

I still remember the video of her playing with her sister and I knew I had to have her😍

When I first got her home, Lucy love to attach herself to me, she never left my bed or my body. I definitely love the affection and loved cuddling with her. It was like we were in our own world. Having to train a new pup is not rosy, I think it don’t get talked about. If you’re thinking of getting a new pup, here are some few tips:

1. Get a dog that suits your lifestyle, most people get pest because they are cute. But that’s not only a factor to consider.
2. Don’t use harsh chemicals in the house as a cleaning agent this can harm your new pup.
3. Create a warm space for your pup because warmth help after she has left her pack.
4. Be attentive to your new pup.
5. Make sure you remove any chewable items from the floor, keep it at arms length.
6. Also, know a vet that’s accessible to you, incase of emergency.

I must say, having a pet is not always rosy! There are times you have to closely watch your pet to know if they’re eating well, pooing or not happy. It’s been 9 months of being a dog mum, and the experience is something I cherish so much.

I keep learning more from my baby she has taught me patience, understanding, love, and how to enjoy my own company. I think all dog lovers has canceled appointment one or two times just to spend time with their dog.

I love her every single day for bringing joy to my life. I now understand when my baby needs cuddle, or need something to munch on. And I definitely enjoy it when she cuddles me. Having a pet has been a life changing experience.

I hope to add more pup to keep Lucy company. kindly suggest below if you’re a dog lover and what breed are you adding to your family or should I add to mine?
