Can you please list the items I need if I get a dog? (optional: question is in detail)?

Question

Can you please list the stuff you bought for your dog that you knew you didn't need but you bought any way

Answer 1

food, bowls, crate, toys, collar, leash, treats are the big essentials... a vet check up right after the puppy comes up is ideal as well.

Answer 2

All different kinds of toys, plush, rubber, cloth, pull and chew. Start out with one or two each to find out what one or ones the dog likes. Also, a good brand of dog food, treats, if your looking to get a puppy training pads, kennel to fit the dog when it is full grown. And a bed and blanket, nothing fancy. Leash , Harness( I do not believe in collars) food and water dishes,brush, shampoo. And Lots of Love

Answer 3

Veterinary Neurological Consulting Services, Dadeville, Alabama, USA. Introduction Neurotoxicity in dogs and cats may result from myriad agents, including metals, pesticides, solvents and other chemicals, and bacterial, animal, and plant-derived toxins, as well as therapeutic agents [1]. Drug-induced toxicity may be caused by overdosage, undesirable side effects, or accidental exposure, usually ingestion. In one study [2], the most commonly reported toxins were: lindane-based insecticides (HCB, hexachlorocyclohexane, Isotox, Lintox); pyrethrin and pyrethroid insecticides (permethrin, fenvalerate/DEET); chlorpyrifos, strychnine, lead, metaldehyde (in metaldehyde-based molluscicides), and caffeine (e.g., ingestion of caffeine-based stimulants or chocolate which contains caffeine and theobromine). In general, signs of neurotoxicity may include excitation, depression, tremors, clonic-tonic seizures, hyperactivity, ataxia, circling, salivation, hyperthermia, and coma. Treatment involves decontamination where indicated (e.g., bathing/shampooing), inducing emesis (e.g. apomorphine), correction of any fluid and electrolyte imbalances, repeated administration of activated charcoal with a saline cathartic (sodium sulfate is more efficient than magnesium sulfate) or performing gastric lavage to decrease the amount the animal absorbs, and providing demulscents (milk, kaolin-pectin) for any gastrointestinal irritation [3]. Neurotoxic agents have been arbitrarily grouped as follows: Metals Lead Mercury Automotive products Ethylene glycol Solvents/cleansing agents Alcohols Chlorhexidine Hexachlorophene Rodenticides Anticoagulant Rodenticides Bromethalin Strychnine Thallium Insecticides, Molluscicides, Repellents Amitraz Chlorinated Hydrocarbons Metaldehyde Organophosphates/Carbamates Pyrethrins and Pyrethroids Herbicides (2-methyl-4-chloro) Phenoxyacetic Acid Plants Cyanogenic Cycad Palms Bacterial Botulism Tetanus Animal Tick Paralysis Toad Toxicity Therapeutic agents/drugs Aminoglycosides Barbiturates Caffeine and other Methylxanthines Bromide Closantel Griseofulvin Ivermectin Levamisole Methionine Metoclopramide Metronidazole Pemoline Toluene/Dichlorophen Tricyclic Antidepressants Vincristine Zolpidem 5-Fluorouracil 5-Hydroxytryptophan

Answer 5

I bought his needs (food/water bowl, food,collar, leash) then I bought toys,bed,toothbrush doggy toothpaste,2 hairbrushes,and I buy everything the vet suggest.If your dog is on meds I recommend pill pockets its so much easier to give them the pills.If your dogs in the house get shedding pills they are great.

Answer 6

kate has got it covered here very well ...I'd only add this: Bowls are better if they are Stainless Steel...easy to run thru the dishwasher from time to time for sanitation ....toys and chews should be made of material not readily found in your home...avoid cotton and rubber and plastics....or your dog could learn to chew everything made of that you own....stick with Nyla bones and Nyla ropes for teething chew toys...now the crate or kennel....this is not a cage...cages are wire on all sides...an animal can feel trappped in them as it affords no protection.....crates have 3 sides that have limited visual input providing the den feeling...now size is key here....figure on the need for at least two crates in his life unless he will be a small dog...the first crate should be just big enough for him to get in turn around and lie down in...the roof or top should be low enough to force him to lie down rather than stand....this forces rest and sleep.....he will need it.....hope this helps..

Just 1 more thingy...leashes are the most comfortable if made from leather....

Answer 10

in addition to the usual:Food, treats, bowls, toys, collar, leash, dog run, harness, flea collar, dog bed (totally useless, she sleeps in our bed), and tag with our name address and phone number we also got her a doggy canteen because we take her on a lot of road trips and hikes! That was a GREAT investment!
