“Best experience I have had purchasing a puppy!” I knew I wanted her from the first photo posted and Jeanette helped make it happen. She kept me up to date on her growth and changes as the weeks went on. And I was visiting in the area and she allowed me to interrupt her day and come out and do a meet and greet! We love our Nova! She has the best personality, is a great family dog, and has grown to be my bestie! We will add to our Corgi clan and definitely purchase another [puppy] from Jeanette at Lost Creek Corgis!

FAQ
FAQs for New Puppy Parents:
What's the best way to house train my new puppy?
Consistency and positive reinforcement are key! Take your puppy outside frequently, especially after meals and naps, and praise them lavishly when they go potty outside. Crate training can also be helpful for establishing a routine.
How can I socialize my puppy effectively?
Early socialization is crucial for a well-adjusted adult dog. Introduce your puppy to new people, places, and experiences gradually and positively. Puppy socialization classes can also be a fun and safe way to help your pup build confidence and learn valuable social skills.
When should I start training my puppy?
Start training as soon as you bring your puppy home! Basic obedience training, such as sit, stay, and come, can begin as early as 8 weeks old. Keep training sessions short, fun, and consistent to help your puppy learn quickly.
What's the best diet for my puppy?
Choose a high-quality puppy food that is specifically formulated to meet the nutritional needs of growing dogs. Feed your puppy according to the manufacturer’s guidelines based on their age, weight, and activity level, and be sure to provide plenty of fresh water at all times.
How much exercise does my puppy need?
Puppies have lots of energy to burn, but their exercise needs vary depending on their breed, age, and health status. As a general rule, aim for several short play sessions throughout the day, with plenty of opportunities for supervised outdoor exploration and socialization.
When should I take my puppy to the vet for vaccinations?
Puppies should receive a series of vaccinations starting at around 6-8 weeks old, with booster shots given every 3-4 weeks until they are about 16 weeks old. Your veterinarian can help you create a vaccination schedule tailored to your puppy’s specific needs.
How can I keep my puppy safe from common hazards in the home?
Puppy-proof your home by removing or securing potential hazards such as electrical cords, toxic plants, and small objects that could be swallowed. Use baby gates to restrict access to dangerous areas, and supervise your puppy closely when they’re exploring new environments.
What's the best way to groom my puppy?
Regular grooming helps keep your puppy’s coat clean and healthy. Brush your puppy’s fur regularly to prevent matting and tangles, and trim their nails as needed to keep them from becoming too long. Introduce grooming gradually and positively to help your puppy feel comfortable and relaxed during grooming sessions.
Remember, every puppy is unique, so don’t hesitate to reach out to your veterinarian or a certified dog trainer if you have specific questions or concerns about your new furry family member!
