YNP #099: Why Not to Give a Puppy as a Holiday Gift
Manage episode 440392374 series 1433019
The holiday season is a popular time to bring a new puppy into the family. But how we do it can make a big difference in the well being of all involved.
Now before I totally burst your bubble, I'm not saying you shouldn't get a puppy this time of year (though there are things to consider while making that decision).
What I'm going to talk about here is why you shouldn't surprise someone (kids or adult) with the actual puppy on a specific day - Christmas morning, for example.
We think of it as a special magical moment where a puppy comes out of a box and our kids or family member is overwhelmed with joy. But the reality is, this can be a stressful experience for a puppy who is also meeting their new family for the first time.
If you're considering getting a puppy around the holidays, this episode will help you keep the time special while making sure it's a joyful and stress free experience for both humans and puppies!
Enjoy!
In this episode I talk about:
- What to think about when giving a puppy as a gift.
- Why you shouldn't plan a surprise with an actual puppy.
- The importance of building trust with your puppy during the first few days home.
- The importance of preparing your family before bringing a puppy home.
- Alternative ways to make the holiday special without surprising someone with an actual puppy.
