Free Gifts With Every Puppy
Free gifts with every puppy: a welcome pack of starter items goes home with each one. The contents are refreshed from time to time, so ask us for the current list rather than trusting a page. What never changes is what is already in the price.
What comes with a puppy, free gifts and all?
Every puppy goes home with its vaccinations to date, the record booklet, health certification and ancestry records, all of which are in the price rather than gifts. On top of that, a welcome pack of starter items comes with it. Ask us for the current contents.
Free gifts with every puppy, and what is simply in the price
Worth separating, because sellers blur the two and the blurring always runs one way. Free gifts with every puppy is a real thing here, and so is the list of items that were never gifts to begin with.
- Vaccinations completed before homecoming.
- The record booklet, with the dates written in it.
- Health certification.
- Ancestry records.
None of that is a favour. It is what a licensed seller hands over as a matter of course, and a seller presenting it as a bonus is telling you something.
- Starter items that go home with the puppy at no separate charge.
- The contents change, so no list is published here that would be wrong by the time you read it. One message gets you the current one.
- No monetary value attached, either. A headline value on a gift is a marketing number, and you would be right to discount it.
Buyers mention the starter kit and the gifts in their own words on our reviews page, which is better evidence than anything we could write here.
What you still have to buy
A welcome pack is a buffer, not a shopping list you can skip. These are the things worth having in the flat before the puppy is in it.
Set the crate up the day before. Homecoming evening is a bad time to be reading assembly instructions with a puppy watching.
- A crate or playpen, set up before arrival rather than assembled at ten at night.
- Pee pads or a tray, and a decision about where the spot is going to be permanently.
- Food and water bowls, plus enough of the food your puppy is already eating to avoid switching in week one.
- A collar and lead, even though walks wait until the vaccination course is finished.
- Something safe to chew, because a puppy that has nothing will find something.
The first nights are the hard part, and our page on settling a crying puppy is written for a flat rather than for a house with a garden. Our vaccination schedule explains what is done and what is still ahead when the puppy reaches you.
