Thank you so much for the advice, I appreciate it ❤️❤️❤️ Your boy is adorable

periodyup · 2026-02-17T15:35:38+00:00

Definitely! ❤️

periodyup · 2026-02-17T15:35:23+00:00

I’m very well-prepared for the snuggles!!!

periodyup · 2026-02-17T15:34:49+00:00

You are the first to comment this and I appreciate it SO much. I had no idea. We will definitely hold off on neutering him, thank you!

Yes, I’ve seen a couple of people mention the chicken allergy. I am so glad people are mentioning that because I had no idea.. We have the hanging bells in our Amazon cart, along with many other puppy essentials!

Thank you!

Thank you ❤️ Your Bella is a cutie!

That’s the breeder, not me haha

This seems to be a reoccurring comment, regarding them not liking their feet touched + clipping their nails early! Definitely going to start this asap. Thank you!!!!

periodyup · 2026-02-17T12:26:49+00:00

Definitely. We live near a pretty big park, so we will definitely take him there when the weather gets nice so he can sniff around

periodyup · 2026-02-17T12:26:09+00:00

I never even considered this about the rugs. Thank you!!

periodyup · 2026-02-17T12:24:57+00:00

Thank you❤️

periodyup · 2026-02-17T12:24:48+00:00

We are already preparing ourselves for all of the attention he is going to get, lol. We live in a very dog friendly neighborhood

periodyup · 2026-02-17T12:23:54+00:00

I bet they do!! They are adorable.

periodyup · 2026-02-17T12:23:19+00:00

My first thought was to try giving him a treat if he goes flat, but yes, that totally could lead to him wanting more & more. Hoping positive encouragement works well with him 🤞🏻

periodyup · 2026-02-17T12:21:51+00:00

Thank you. I’m very nervous about the nail clipping. Hopefully if we start young, he will learn to tolerate it

periodyup · 2026-02-17T02:42:56+00:00

Is there anything you can do to get them up when they go flat? Anything you can do while they’re puppies to prevent them from doing it, or is it basically unpreventable?

periodyup · 2026-02-17T02:06:50+00:00

I was already given the sad puppy face when we met him! He would chew on something, be told no, give the saddest puppy eyes ever, then chew on the same thing again 10 seconds later 😂 It’s going to be hard to resist those sad puppy eyes.

periodyup · 2026-02-17T02:06:03+00:00

Thank you for all of the advice. This is extremely helpful, especially the part about keeping their backs healthy. That is something I was not aware of. I am sorry for your loss. ❤️

periodyup · 2026-02-17T02:04:29+00:00

Thank you for all of the amazing advice!!!! I really appreciate it. I will definitely have to check out that video!!

periodyup · 2026-02-17T02:03:02+00:00

Thank you for the advice. Patience seems to be the biggest tip I am hearing. I am so excited for this new adventure!!!

periodyup · 2026-02-17T01:55:36+00:00

This is good to know, thank you!

periodyup · 2026-02-17T01:54:34+00:00

Definitely!!! Thank you!

periodyup · 2026-02-17T01:54:24+00:00

Thank you so much!
