Home is Where the Bark is!
Embarking on the journey to welcome a playful puppy into your family is a joyous occasion—a chapter filled with boundless love, delightful companionship, and the promise of countless tail wags. If you're in search of the perfect addition to your household, look no further than Summit Zoo. Our devoted team is dedicated to ensuring that your path to a new family member is just as joyous as the exciting journey that follows.
Welcoming a puppy into your home is an experience that should be met with comfort and familiarity. At Summit Zoo, we understand that establishing a predictable schedule for your new family member is the key to providing them with a sense of security. Knowing what to expect throughout the day helps alleviate anxiety, allowing your puppy to feel more at ease as they adjust to their new environment. Consistency is the cornerstone of successful puppy parenting. We advise maintaining regular feeding times, play sessions, and rest periods to create a routine that your puppy can rely on.
Your home is a treasure trove of new scents, sights, and sounds for your soon-to-be furry family member. At Summit Zoo, we advocate for a gentle and gradual introduction to this exciting new world. Allow your puppy to embark on their exploration journey gradually. Start by introducing them to one room at a time. This controlled approach prevents your puppy from becoming overwhelmed and provides them with the opportunity to acclimate to their new environment at their own pace. We're here to guide you through this process, ensuring a smooth transition for both you and your new companion.
The first few days with your puppy are an opportunity to build a strong foundation of trust and love. Your puppy is entering a new environment filled with new faces, scents, and experiences. Positive reinforcement is a powerful tool in shaping your puppy's behavior. Positive reinforcement is more than a training technique; it's a language of love and encouragement that builds the foundation for a lifelong bond. Our team encourages the use of praise, treats, and gentle guidance to shape your puppy's behavior positively, creating a positive association with their new home. As your puppy receives affirmation for their good behavior, they not only learn but also build a deep sense of trust and security in their relationship with you.
At Summit Zoo, we believe in laying the foundation for a strong and trusting relationship by establishing routines, introducing your puppy to their new surroundings gradually, and showering them with positive reinforcement. We believe in being your ongoing support system, providing resources, tips, and advice to ensure a seamless transition and a thriving relationship with your puppy.
