Utonagan Puppy Care

After doing your homework and studying the breed you will realise that a lot of hard work comes with a new puppy, especially a large breed. If your breeder has decided that you are suited to this lovely breed they should ensure before you take pup home that it is 8 weeks old or above and they have been :

1. Vet checked, with a copy of such provided.
2. Micro-chipped
3. DNA profiled and DNA record held at the Kennel Club
4. BVA eye screened.
5. Wormed
6. Front-lined
9. Insured for 6 weeks
10. Have life time after care with breeder
11. All with a food pack of their current food

Some breeders may have had puppies first inoculations, depending on their vet but if your puppy has not had these you should be advised to get them as soon as you can you will be informed in your after care letter provided by your breeder.

You should also receive the puppy’s Registration documents and change of ownership papers and a pedigree certificate.

You should start puppy training and socialisation classes with puppy as soon as you can as this will be a great benefit to you and your new dog and will ensure a happy relationship between you both. The Utonagan is a very intelligent dog and would excel in a good training environment.

If you have any problems or queries regarding your Utonagan puppy please phone your breeder or get in touch with the British Utonagan Association.
