Welcome to the club! Being a dog parent means unconditional love, a camera roll full of paw pics, and a newfound appreciation for lint rollers. Whether you’ve just adopted or you’re re-upping your pet care game, here’s your starter kit:
-
The Essentials: A comfy crate or bed, food/water bowls, leash, collar with ID tag, and a go-to toy (you’ll figure out your dog’s fave fast).
-
Health & Hygiene: Regular grooming gear, flea/tick preventatives, and a solid plan for dental care.
-
Wellness Support: Supplements that support digestion, joint health, and calm behavior make life smoother—for both of you. Think of it like a multivitamin routine for your dog.
-
Tech & Training: GPS collars, treat-dispensing cameras, or puzzle feeders—because today’s dog parents are smart and stylish.
Start with the basics, then build as you go. Every dog is different, but they all thrive with structure, love, and a little extra support.
