Taking Puppy To The Vet
Some breeders take out insurance on their
puppies which remains in force for the first six weeks they are
in their new home. This means the new owner needs to have the
puppy examined by a vet within 24 hours of arriving home (where
possible have this done at home rather than at the vet's surgery
as at this time the puppy is usually going to be too young to
have had its injections) a certificate of health is then signed
by the vet and returned to the breeder. Even when there is no
such insurance policy in force it is good advice to have your
puppy examined in this way for your own peace of mind because if
you wait, even for a week, before doing this it makes the
resolving of any problems more difficult as there may be no way
of telling whether or not the ailment or infection was present at
the time of purchase.
