Belong to Miyaki

Keeping up with healthy (mentally and physically) puppyhood is a thrill challenge for me as a new pet keeper.

Maybe many of you are already experts. But there's no harm viewing through all the pictures and share some knowledge or things in common together ;)


First of all, the essential daily consumption dog foods. I bought 2 different brands to try out. The rescue center recommend Royal Canin but eventually, IAMS appears to be more suitable for Miyaki's diet.


Treats and snacks are utterly important to train puppies. Make them work for foods is the best way for them to learn ;) Do not beat them, please!!! They'll just afraid but never learn.


These 2 are Miyaki's favorites. Cut puppies' treats into smaller pieces, you just want them to learn, not obese.
1) Beef flavor
2) Chicken flavor


Puppies like to bite, basically on any tangible things. Buy chews for them to avoid accident on ripped shoes or carpet. There are many choices available in the market and one pack can last you forever.


I bought this on last Saturday. The book "Puppies for dummy" actually recommended it and it really works! Load peanut butter into the stuff toy; it's a good way to distract aggressive puppies.


Loads of toys... The Wubba toy beeps when Miyaki chews on it. Guess what, he finds it exciting and keeps figuring ways to make the toy beeps again and again!


These toys have sounds too~~ He just can't get enough.


And more toys!!! Puppies love to surrounded by toys, you can tell from the picture above. Don't spoil them with toys though, occasionally bring the toys and invite them to play.


Hehe... I simply obsess of puppies' clothes :p


Tools for grooming. 1) Fast bath spray, I use it when he came back from muddy walk, 2) Tearless shampoo, twice a week.


Roller and poop bags. It's an obligation to clean up your puppy's business in U.S.


Stain and odor removers, and napkins. I hate the "doggie smell". You don't need this if you keep your pet outside of the house.


1) Adjustable leash. I personally do not recommend this one, you don't need a fancy one like this. It's important to coach your puppy to walk with you (a close distance) than letting him running around like he is the boss.

2) Dog Collar. Get your pup a comfortable and adjustable one cause they grow faster than you think. I let Miyaki wear his collar most of the time (except sleeping) in order to make him feel comfortable and familiar with it.

It's truly time-consuming and huge responsibility to take care of a life, especially one that is so young, fragile and can't talk.

But I never regret to do so.


Love you, baby...
