Veterinary Exam - Have your new pet examined as soon as possible! This is especially important if you have another pet at home in order to help prevent or minimize transmission of disease. A schedule for vaccinations can be set up at this time also. Make sure all your current pets are up to date with their vaccinations as well. It might be a good idea to keep you new pet apart from the others for a minimum of one week to prevent the possibility of disease transmission or in case your new pet is incubating a contagious disease.

House Training - Kittens are easy but dogs will require a little more time.  Remember dogs don't like to go to the bathroom in the same place they eat or sleep. Find one place outside and always take him to that place while training. Most puppies need to go to the bathroom a few minutes after they eat or upon waking up from a nap. NEVER discipline your dog if you do not catch him in the act. He won't understand. When he goes in the designated area, be sure to lavish him with pets and praise! Learn to watch for the tell-tale body signs your pet will have when he needs to go. Above all - Be Patient!

Why do we recommend neutering pets?

This is untrue. Modern anesthesia makes surgery painless. Recovery, particularly in a young animal is total and rapid.

There are multiple reasons we recommend neutering (spaying and castrating) pets. They basically fall into two categories, medical and behavioral. Most owners are familiar with the behavioral reasons.

Neutered (castrated) males will:

- not roam as much
- not chase females in heat
- tend to be less aggressive
- be less likely to "hump" or masturbate on people and inanimate objects
- mark their territory less

Neutered (spayed) females will:
 

- not roam as much
- not exhibit "nesting" behavior
- not have episodes of bleeding when they go through their heat cycles
- be less likely to "hump" or masturbate on people and inanimate objects
