When people buy pets on impulse, they are often woefully under prepared for the new addition. Take some time to plan ahead and stock up on essential doggie supplies. Choose some food and a variety of chews and toys. You'll also need a leash, an appropriate collar or harness, a crate, and potty cleanup bags.
Don't forget to buy some treats, so you can start reinforcing desirable behaviors immediately!
