First Weeks Guide: Your Puppy's New Home
Establishing a Routine
Tibetan Terriers and Pumik thrive on predictability. Establish a set schedule for potty breaks, training, and quiet time from day one to build confidence and trust in their new environment.
Nutrition & Feeding
Puppies need high-quality nutrition for growth. Feed 2-3 small meals a day at the same times. Keep them on their breeder-recommended diet to avoid digestive upset during the transition.
Socialization
Gently introduce your puppy to household sounds and different surfaces safely. Whether you bring home a Tibetan Terrier or a pumi, both breeds are highly intelligent and observant, so positive, controlled exposure is key to a well-adjusted adult dog.
Sleep & Recovery
Growth is exhausting! Ensure votre Tibetan Terrier or Pumi puppy has a quiet, dedicated sleeping area. Puppies can sleep up to 18-20 hours a day—respect their need for rest to prevent over-stimulation.
