• Be sure to get in touch with your vet and schedule an appointment  for the second set of shots 2-3 weeks from the time of their first shot,  which will be on the date of their first vet check. 
•  When your puppy is about 5 weeks old this is a good time to start  planning which day you’d like to bring your little bundle of joy home. I  usually have posted my calendar on the website under "AVAILABLE PUPPIES" page  so you are able to schedule your perfect pick up date and time. If my  schedule for that week doesn't work for you its no problem just let me  know your plans and we’ll try our best to arrange a pick up schedule for  everyone. 

Things you’ll need:

•  Food- This is the diet the puppies are currently eating. We  always start our puppies on Life's Abundance food. I HIGHLY recommend  this kibble option. We have been feeding LA for several years and it is  our absolute favorite. Our Puppies do amazing on it as well as our  adults dogs. We also supplement with a couple other brands here and  there...but this is the one we recommend.  LA is ordered online and  shipped directly to your door, so there is no need to run to the  grocery, or the nearest pet store. 
• Here is the link to order:

The  puppies are currently eating the Small Breed Puppy, I mix the grain  food and the grain free so they get some of both. You can choose to feed  the All life stages with grain or without if you’d like, either one is  acceptable.  

Some things to remember about this food:  

The  protein levels are very high which means your puppy won’t need as much  food as they may with another brand. If your puppy overeats sometimes  they can get the runs (no fun). Make sure to stick to the recommended  feeding amounts. I personally feed 1.5 cups to my young puppies and as  they grow I bump it to 2 cups per day. I could talk all day about the  benefits I’ve seen from feeding this better quality food, but I’ll let  you find out for yourselves 😉. 

• LA also offers treats, canned food, shampoo etc... These are all  great products that I highly recommend. Their bio-degradable cleaner is  AMAZING as well and can be very useful when bringing home a new puppy  👍. 
•  NuVet Vitamin supplement.

As a dog breeder, animal health is  my top priority.  That’s why NuVet Plus immune system builder is  something I recommend for every puppy I send home. Your Aussie puppy  just got weaned off of one of nature’s super foods – their colostrum  from their mom. This creates a significant drop in their immunity. We used NuVet Plus as a prenatal and now recommend a daily dosage of NuVet Plus for your puppy from the first time you do your first feeding – they  have been on NuVet since getting weaned.  This is the time when the  puppy’s immune system is at its most vulnerable point. The puppies are  also dealing with the stress of moving into their home, which includes  being exposed to novel viruses and bacteria which can cause health  issues.  In addition, the vaccines are most effective if they are at  peak immunity support. The product is awesome for older dogs, dogs in  peak performance as well, so we recommend a lifetime of NuVet (get their  auto ship pricing). It can act as a treat and save on Vet bills as  well. Your dog will be in and can stay in top optimal health. This is a  closed program that include Vets and Breeders and as a dog breeder we  recommend it.

They are proven to  keep dogs immune systems boosted during vaccinations and are also  wonderful for keeping healthy joints. Nuvet offers more supplements in  ONE vitamin vs. a variety of vitamins that do different things. They are  formulated in an FDA regulated laboratory and are human grade.

You  are welcome to order either vitamin supplement (LA or NuVet) I have  used both and done trials with my dogs to see which I prefer. To be  completely honest I was very happy with the results of both vitamins and  didn’t feel either “test” dog was in better health than the other.

So I leave it up to my customers to decide which vitamins they prefer. 

• Crate- I personally love crate training for my puppies. It teaches  them that they have a safe space that is all theirs, and it also gives a  great jump on potty training. Most puppies prefer not to potty in their  bed, and will usually whine when they need to go out. So crate training  teaches them those basics very early. My personal preference is the 30-36”  size crate(Frisco Brand) with the divider.  This size will fit through a  regular size doorway, the 42” crate is nice for the dog to have extra  room...but it doesn’t fit through doorways so you have to break it down  every time you want to move it 😑. I prefer to have the divider in the  crate when the puppy first goes home because it can really benefit with  potty training. The less space the puppy has at night the less likely  they are to potty in that space. Many puppies if given a large crate  will potty in one end and sleep in the other. Trust me, this is not a  habit you would like to form. 
• Fleece Crate mats are great for your pets comfort and they are  made with an absorbent pad so they catch any accidents your puppy may  have, also they are machine washable which is so nice! 

The best and most affordable place to find these items is:

www.CHEWY.com       (anything over $50 is free shipping) 

• Collar, leash, harness-  I will send a puppy size harness, leash  and collar in the puppy kit so if you want to purchase one of course  that’s up to you 😊, but my advice would be to buy the next size up so  your puppy will have something to grow into. Trust me they grow so fast.
• Paperwork-  I will provide you with a copy of our health guarantee  at the time of pick up. However, if you could please go to our page "Pricing and Guarantee" here on the website and look over the contract and guarantee I would  very much appreciate it. I will happy to explain or answer any questions  you may have.

AKC registration papers(if purebred corgi)

Health guarantee papers

Health/veterinary record

Vaccination record

Coat care information papers

Pedigree  (if applicable)

• Final payment must be made either in cash at pick-up, cashiers check, or Venmo at pick up time or before are also acceptable. 

If  you have any questions or concerns at all please feel free to call or  text or email me anytime. I’m always here to answer any questions you  may have or help with any training issues you may have in the future. I  want the best for our puppies and I’m completely willing to help with  problems that may arise.
