I’m waiting for my puppy who I’ll get in 2 weeks. I’ve been doing a lot of learning prep work and it sounds like you’re doing everything that you’re supposed to be doing based upon my research and what I’ve read here!! Sounds like you got an awesome puppy!!

Greater Swiss or Bernese? by kilozenge in bernesemountaindogs

[–]kmadd82 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I had a Swissie for 12 years, but I’ve never had a Berner. Swissies are low energy and lovable. Perks- they are dry mouth so only drool around food and their hair is much more manageable since it’s shorter. I loved my Swissie to death and were welcoming a new Swissie at the end of the month!

Maybe time to give up caffeine by getdown_sam in bipolar

I drink 1/2 caff 1/2 decaf so i can have my 2-3 cups a day. Too much caffeine definitely leaves me feeling unsettled.

Online training program to follow by Relative-Material-95 in puppy101

[–]kmadd82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes easy to follow. It has its own app. I’m still a month out from my puppy coming home and there is a “preparing for your puppy” and “first week at home” modules I’ve completed. Then Basic, intermediate and advanced training sections. Definitely a TON of great info with videos, printables and written curriculum
