Getting a Lab - Now What?
Tips and tricks are welcome, we are getting an 8 week old lab puppy on Sat. My daughter has wanted a dog since birth so it is technically a gift for her 6th birthday, but honestly I'm excited as well. I grew up with dogs but have never been in the situation of being the person in charge of taking care of one. It's a female yellow lab that will be up to date on shots and have dewclaws removed before we get it, so what's next? Find a good vet and get on a program for shots, heart worm medicine, flea treatments, etc? We are also planning on finding a doggy training boot camp type thing where my daughter can take her for training, and will get her spayed when old enough. What else do I need to do or consider? Lab specific advice is welcome.
