Hello Everyone!!
First, A Big Thank you, To "Maja Rocks" Mark for helping me so much with where to start about adopting a Doberman puppy.
My beloved Maggie died after 14 years and I still miss her so much. I found a DPCA approved and recommended Rescue in Louisville, KY. (I'm in Lexington, KY) I put in an application quite a while ago and honestly didn't expect a "Puppy" quite so soon.
In any case, her name is Luna and she is 8 months old and to be honest while very excited I'm a little out of practice as it's been 14 years since I've had a Doberman puppy.
I used to feed Wellness Puppy food but Luna is already on Diamond Naturals Large Breed Puppy Lamb and Rice Formula, they are sending almost a new bag with her, when I pick her up tomorrow.
I am curious, which DRY dog food is your favorite for your Doberman and why? I will feed dry dog food, personally, I like that best, I also think it helps keep their teeth clean. Also, do you give supplements to puppies, and if so which one's and why?
I'm going to watch and read up on having a "Puppy" again. The good news is at 8 months old she is already house trained/crate trained/leash trained and good around other dogs. So that is a good start, but this will be yet another new home, her third and final so I'm not sure how that will affect her, the great news is unlike my last Dobmerman, she wasn't abandoned. I was lucky she didn't have any health issues except normal Doberman Issues in her old age.
Any suggestions you could make as far as raising a puppy, favorite safe toys, favorite dog gate, favorite dry dog food, favorite healthy treats, etc. Anything you can think of I would appreciate it! Thank you! Dan
P.S. I attached photo's so you can see the sweet girl I'm picking up tomorrow!
