Puppy Essentials we love

Make puppyhood easier with our tried and true favorites.

Having a puppy is like having a toddler (or worse).

They pee on your floor, they cry when you leave them, and they touch absolutely everything.

We’ve worked with amd raised hundreds of puppies, and in doing that, we have collected our favorite things here for you to make puppyhood a little bit easier.

  • Kong Classic

    A stuffed kong is our #1 trick to helping puppies calm down, relax, and sleep. We especially love using it right before nap time in their crate to help them calm down and learn to LOVE their nap zone.

  • Bully Stick Holder

    We always want to keep puppies as safe as possible, so we use a bully stick holder like this one to keep them from eating the small end pieces that might be leftover

  • Bully Sticks

    This is hands down our favorite type of chew for dogs and puppies. Get a bully stick holder for extra safety, and keep the puppy teeth occupied with this instead of your shoes.

  • Canned Puppy Food

    After years of working with puppies, we have found that using canned puppy food for Kongs (and lock mats) is a cheat code to getting a calmer and happier puppy. This specific formula has a good reputation for not causing tummy upset, and you don’t have to worry about feeding too much of it (like you might with peanut butter).
