There is a lot of info on the internet and in books, but I'd like first-hand advice on what you found most important, most helpful, key steps in bringing your shelter dog home....: (I am planning on getting a puppy, somewhere between 3-12 months old).
- how did you make their first night (s) and days comfortable?
- how soon should I take the pup to the vet for his first visit?
- what age is appropriate for taking a pup for walks on a leash?
- what "signs" should I look for in the dogs when choosing - for example, ways to recognize aggression issues or socialization problems
- What were the "essentials" you were glad you had bought ahead of time?
- How long did it take your dog to start acting happy and comfortable in its new home?
