Hi everyone, I have a few specific questions about French Bulldog puppies that I haven't found a clear answer on. My husband and I will be new dog owners so I apologize that I'm a total newbie here.
Also... if anyone in Canada has a good recommendation for ordering antler chews online please let me know. If seems like most on Amazon come from the States and get hefty import fees tacked on.
Thanks so much!
- Is starting out with a 'slow feeder' (like https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B00L3O3UPE...lid=1R5MUGKP4WWOD&coliid=I3PTNSIOHFGQE1&psc=1) okay for a puppy, or will it be too difficult for her to eat from?
- Are "puppy sized" nylabones okay? I've read that I should get larger ones, but I'm unsure. I will also be getting antler chews. I want to make sure she has many chewing options.
- Is there a big difference between 'puppy' and 'dog' food? Is it important to feed puppy food to start? I was defaulting to this, but then thought if I could switch foods less often it might be better? I am looking at Taste of the Wild Pacific Salmon formula. I also read somewhere that salmon will make their breath stinky... Anyone ever heard of that?
- The breeder will be sending her home with a harness and leash... Is it ok if I get a collar? I've read articles saying "no collars ever!" but I see so many photos of pups with collars. Are nylon collars with plastic buckle clips ok?
- Are knotted rope toys a bad idea? Can they be chewed on or are they just for tugging? I do not want her to learn tugging when she's young so may avoid this and get a different toy instead.
