2. What you will need

You will need various accessories for your puppy. These include:

1. A nice-fitting collar. You should be able to place your first and middle fingers comfortably between the collar and the puppy's neck.
2. A leash. You can buy any leash. Some are nylon, and some are carried like a tape measure in a case. Buy one of good length, but not too long.
3. Food and water bowls. The best ones are non-slip, but you can place a towl or other material under them to be sure. Make sure your puppy can fit his head into them, even when he is a dog.
4. Food. This is obviously essential. Choose the best brand you can find, or follow this recipe:

6 cups water
1 pound ground turkey
2 cups brown rice
1 teaspoon dried rosemary
1/2 (16 ounce) package frozen broccoli
combination of carrots and cauliflower
Mix all ingredients. Place in pan, cook in oven for 25-30 minutes. Cut into nice-sized portions. Serve to your pooch.
5. Treats. You may or may not want these. These will be essential for training your puppy.
You can now bring your puppy home!
