answers 0:so ive done temperment, background, that kind of research already... but im drawing a blank on items. im getting a german shepherd puppy in the spring! here are the items i can think of:-harness and leash-stainless steel food and water dish-wire and rubber/soft brush-(already have nail clippers)thats all i can think of.... the puppy IS allowed to sleep on my bed so no crate is needed.. umm.. so yeah!! supply ideas greatly appreciated 😀 thanks!...Show moreanswers 1:Toys...stuff to chew on.answers 2:You could get a collar, poo bags and blankets for him 🙂answers 3:German shepherds are great and wonderful family dogs I think you will be glad to own one in the spring.Harness and leash are much needed you have a great list right now.You have the grooming stuff down I think you could add some things still. First of all get puppy pads Or one! of those green rug things that look like they have real grass on them lol. (Until your pup is older I suggest keeping him in one room until he is potty trained)I still think you need a crate because you cant leave him alone in the house or he will chew and poo all over. Make sure if you get a crate!!! the crate is not a place he goes when being punished. Maybe a clicker for clicker training. Rubber toys and a few plush ones and some of those toys that you put a treat in and the dog has to figure how to get them out. Feed him 3 times a day(Breakfast lunch and dinner) fill the food bowl up halfway. Make sure you socialize him socialization is the key. Have fun.. 😀 Don't forget dog treats The dental sticks are good...answers 4:Don't let the size fool you, Chihuahua's are pretty tough fiesty little dogs. I would think whatever good quality food you've fed in the past. I feed Merrick Wilderness blend. You may want something with a little smaller sized kibble (or maybe not). ! I have standard dachshunds and my dogs get fed 3/4 cup of food! a day, divided into 2 meals, my dogs are 20 pounds, so obviously, the Chi will be fed less than that. Chihuahua's can walk a pretty good distance at a pretty good clip. I would suggest a sweater for them, they are small and they are single coated. You train and socialize them just like you would any other dog. Visit the Chihuahua Club of America. Also, see if there's a book like Chihuahuas for Dummies. I know there's one for Dachshunds. Bad title, decent book. edit: The one thing i would not do is leave the food down all day. It will create housebreaking issues and you never really knwo how much they ate, since they pick throughout the day. As a small pup, 3 meals a day, when she gets older, eliminate the lunch and just feed 2x's a day....answers 5:Yes, a crate is needed for when you aren't home. Crates keep dogs safe when they can't be supervised.ToysFoodShampooEar Cleaner *Kwik Stop* in case to clip the nails too shortA chosen VetFolder to keep all documents inCollar, n! ot harness. Harnesses encourage pulling...answers 6:so if im excluding your previous list of your supply ideas, this is what i got:-potty tray (if you aren't going to let your dog out to poopppppp XD)-chew toys-puppy shampoo-puppy toothpaste kit-treats!!!-urine off or some other sort of poop/urine spray (so that the puppy doesnt remember its mark and doesnt pee on that area again)i also recommend getting a water bottle instead of a water dish because that would make its muzzle all wet :)hope this helped!! ♥...answers 7:toys and maybe some puppy shampooanswers 8:You should get some puppy training pads or something like that so your puppy doesn't have an accident on your floor. Also try to find some puppy training spray. You spray it on your furniture so your puppy won't chew on it because it taste very bitter. I used it for my puppy and she didn't chew on anything. Hope this helps 🙂
