Tips For Purchasing A Puppy … If You MUST!

Love-A-Bull: Pitbull Rescue and Adoption South Africa

Disclaimer: We, at Love-A-Bull SA, DO NOT support breeding and sale of puppies, not while so many unwanted dogs are condemned to a life sentence of abuse, neglect or life in a sanctuary/resucue. 

However, we have been at this long enough to know that people will always want and buy puppies, so here are some tips on purchasing a puppy, if you must.

NEVER EVER TAKE A PUPPY YOUNGER THAN 10 WEEKS OLD

The most critical time of your puppy’s development and socialisation happens between the ages of 6 & 12 weeks, it is essential that they remain with their mother and in a litter during this period for proper social development.

Here are the development phases of a puppy:

  1. The Neonatal Stage (birth – 2 weeks) – The puppies eat, sleep, pee and poop. There is no other social interaction at this stage.
  2. The Transitional Stage (2-3 weeks) – The puppies move from just eating and sleeping to become more aware of their surroundings as their eyes and ears open.
  3. The Socialisation Stage (3-13 weeks) – The puppies move from just eating and physical survival to interacting with the members of their society and learning the social rules of their society. *Overlap – The Critical Period (6-13 weeks) This is not a separate stage of development but a component of the Socialization Stage. But this period of development is so crucial to the development of social skills and to the dog’s understanding of key socialisation elements that it merits its own mention. It is within this developmental stage that a dog’s potential as a companion animal is either fostered and nurtured or impeded and even destroyed. It is also within this stage that at least 50% (nurture vs. nature) of the dog’s eventual temperament is developed.
  4. Adolescence (13 weeks – 6 months) – The puppies are now autonomous but are still learning about the social complexities of their society. At this stage varying amounts of latitude are given for socially immature dogs displaying inappropriate social behaviours. Behaviour is corrected by the members of the society.
  5. Adulthood (begins at approximately 6 to 8 months old) – These are fully autonomous dogs that are required to know the rules of the society and operate within the parameters of these rules. Dogs that challenge the rules or don’t conform to the rules may be physically forced out of the group.

ALWAYS INSIST ON A VACCINATION CERTIFICATE

Whether your breeder claims the puppies have been vaccinated or not, if they cannot provide you with a properly certified vet book, then chances are your puppy has not been vaccinated. Take them immediately to a vet and get their vaccinations done and acquire your own vet vaccination booklet.

DE-WORMING YOUR PUP IS ESSENTIAL

Get your puppy de-wormed by your vet and continue to do so regularly until they are 1 years old. Keep a record of their de-worming schedule in your vet booklet.

DOES YOUR PUPPY LOOK HEALTHY

There are obvious and easy ways to spot a healthy puppy, check their eyes, ears and bottom. If the puppy looks unwell, either leave it with it’s mother for a few more days to get well, or take them to a vet for treatment immediately.

FOOD & NUTRITION

Reputable breeders will always provide you with a few days supply of food to continue with the puppy until you can gradually introduce a new brand of food. You cannot simply change a puppies diet, they have extremely sensitive stomachs.

TRAINING & SOCIALISATION

It is essential that you enrol your puppy in puppy school where their socialisation can continue as well as some basic obedience training.

RESEARCH YOUR BREED

Pitt Bulls especially are jumpers, if your walls are too low, they will jump the walls and this will lead to a lot of heartache and devastation. Ensure that you are the ideal home for your cute Pitt Bull puppy because cute Pitt Bull puppies grow up to be large, jumping Pitt Bulls.

BE RESPONSIBLE

Get them micro chipped and sterilised as soon as possible.

BE COMMITTED!

This is a life long commitment! Your cute little puppy will grow up, are you committed to walk a life long path with them?

Owning a puppy is a huge commitment, there are so many deserving and loving dogs sitting in kennels, rescues and foster homes around the country. Consider this carefully before making the decision, perhaps you could offer a loving forever home to a committed soul who, while not as cute as a tiny puppy, will love you unconditionally till death you do part.

    Konu sade ama etkili şekilde anlatılmış.
    Bugün birçok kişi bir hizmet almadan önce internette araştırma yapıyor, yorumlara bakıyor ve farklı firmaları karşılaştırmak istiyor.
    Bu nedenle işletme rehberi platformları hem kullanıcılar hem de işletmeler için oldukça kullanışlı hale geldi.

    Jet Rehber bu açıdan dikkat çekici bir platform olabilir.
    Çünkü sadece işletme bilgisi sunmakla kalmayıp, kullanıcıların hizmet
    almak istediği firmalara daha kolay ulaşmasını sağlayan bir yapı sunuyor.

    Özellikle teklif talepleri gibi özellikler, klasik firma
    rehberlerinden daha işlevsel bir sistem oluşturabilir.

    Hizmet sektöründe güven çok önemli. Kullanıcılar temizlik, oto bakım, güzellik, emlak, danışmanlık
    veya benzeri bir alanda firma ararken karşılarında düzenli, ulaşılabilir ve açıklayıcı bilgiler görmek istiyor.
    Jet Rehber gibi platformlar da bu ihtiyacı karşılayarak işletmeler ile kullanıcılar arasında daha pratik bir bağlantı kurulmasına yardımcı olabilir.

    İşletmeler açısından da bu tarz platformlarda yer almak önemli bir avantaj sağlayabilir.
    Çünkü birçok küçük işletme kaliteli hizmet verse bile dijital ortamda yeterince görünür olmadığı için potansiyel müşterilere ulaşmakta zorlanıyor.
    Bir işletmenin rehberde listelenmesi, teklif
    alabilmesi ve kullanıcılar tarafından kolayca bulunabilmesi, yeni müşteri kazanımı açısından faydalı olabilir.

    Sonuç olarak Jet Rehber gibi işletme rehberi ve teklif alma odaklı platformların gelecekte daha fazla kullanılacağını düşünüyorum.
    Kullanıcı için kolaylık, işletme için görünürlük sağlayan sistemler dijital pazarlamada giderek daha değerli hale geliyor.
    Emeğinize sağlık.
