If you’re about to welcome a new four-legged member of the family, congratulations! This is the beginning of a wonderful journey – they call it pet parenthood for a reason. Whether you're welcoming a lively puppy or a laidback senior, a dog needs guidance and the right accessories. We’re sharing top tips from PEDIGREE®.
Most dogs – whether a pup or adult – take about a month to settle into their new environment, so be patient. As with humans, a good meal can go a long way towards making them feel at home. A nutritionally balanced diet to suit your dog’s age and lifestyle is key. PEDIGREE canned and dry foods are formulated with vitamins and minerals at the right levels to support healthy development.
Tip: For puppies aged four months and over, PEDIGREE® DENTASTIX™ Daily Oral Care Treats can reduce tartar build-up and clean hard-to-reach teeth.
Puppies can be a lot like children: they are busy investigating, having fun and making messy mistakes. Make sure you pup-proof your home. Stash choking hazards, cleaning products and electrical devices out of reach, secure cupboards and make sure your dog is never left alone near open doors or windows.
Make a checklist of potential purchases before your pup arrives. Must-haves include a bed, blankets, toys, a crate, and even a kennel to provide a comfortable place that your dog will feel secure in. A collar and lead, bowls, and grooming tools will also help with a routine, including feeding and daily exercise.
All Australian states and territories require a dog to be registered and microchipped. Check with your vet to understand which vaccinations are needed for where you live.
Remember: patience is key for creating a fun and rewarding friendship between you and your dog.

Asbestos, lead-based paints and copper chromium arsenic (CCA) treated timber are health hazards you need to look out for when renovating older homes. These substances can easily be disturbed when renovating and exposure to them can cause a range of life-threatening diseases and conditions including cancer. For information on the dangers of asbestos, lead-based paint and CCA treated timber and tips for dealing with these materials contact your local council's Environmental Health Officer or visit our Health & Safety page.
When following our advice in our D.I.Y. videos, make sure you use all equipment, including PPE, safely by following the manufacturer’s instructions.
