We got her a GIANT floor pillow, bowls in a stand (very nice, scroll work bronze. Scout has refined taste, after all), a purple rectractable leash (to show her Northwestern Pride), some ropes to chew on, and the pink, long one of these:
And on the way out her Daddy decided she needed a pink tennis ball and pink frisbee because "she's a GIRL."
We are just a little excited. (Squee!)
Re: Scout shall be the happiest puppy in Lake County, IL
(That's my pup's name too, by the way.)
Yippee!!!
My recommendation would be one of these:
We put EZCheese in it and it occupies Corn until he gets every lick out. We call it his pacifier
It's also literally the only toy that he has had since we brought him home that he hasn't chewed to pieces.
I'm so excited for you to get your puppy!!!
Yes! We are totally doing this, since we are going to be crate training. She will get the yummy Kong when she goes in her crate, only. That way it might be a little less traumatic for her.
We also used to put canned dog food in Jake's Kong, and then freeze it so it took longer for him to work out all the innerds..
You can also fill it with peanut butter and treats, then freeze it. Its a great treat that will keep her busy for awhile.
This! That's how I crate trained my two. Every dog in the world should have a Kong, IMO.
