Groodle Care

Lots of cuddles and reassuring hugs is the first thing your puppy will need.

So make it feel loved and secure. Offer your new puppy a little food as soon as it arrives or if you don’t live far, as soon as you get home. Your puppy will not have been fed since the evening meal the day before if it has travelled by air, as it is better for it to travel on an empty stomach. Have fresh water available at all times. 2-3 hours later feed another small meal.

Microchipping

To register your pup’s microchip you will have received microchipping transfer form when you receive your puppy. This form is a receipt for the payment of the microchip registration in your name. Please fill it in, and be sure to post it to AAR. You will require this microchip ownership form to register your puppy with your local council. 

Pet Insurance

We recommend insuring with the RSPCA as some of your money goes to help animals in need. Otherwise we recommended Petcover insurance - www.petcovergroup.com. We can register your puppy for 6 weeks free of change. At the end of the 6 weeks you either renew it with Petcover or change to a pet insurance of your choice.
Choice Magazine gives some recommendations to 1300 Insurance Pet Protect and Pet Insurance Australia, where for around $16.70 monthly with $500 excess, you can cover you dog for Accident Injury and Illness Cover and $500 annual tick paralysis (no excess).

About Collars

Your puppy arrives with a collar which will last for quite a long time. A guide to the size of your puppy’s neck at 8 weeks of age for collar size is as follows: Minis 15cm, Medium 22cm and Standard 30cm. But your puppy has had no or very little leash training, so take it gently and at the very beginning.
