Breeding advice from Domaine des Sources Dorées

When you finalize your first order on the site, don't forget to use the referral code 4F90A64948E which will allow you to get 10% on your first order.

You will only find in the list of articles offered here products that I have validated for their interest, their ergonomics or their performance.

- Education, Training; In this category the lasso leash is interesting. She does the leash and the collar at the same time (we use this type of leash every day with our dogs). ATTENTION this leash has a direction, it must be able to open when the dog does not pull, the leash therefore passes over the dog's neck to come under his throat. The 10-meter lanyard is also interesting, coupled with a collar, it will allow your dog to frolic freely and stay on a leash (be careful not to get tangled, mastering the lanyard is a whole art ☺️).

- Collars ; Inexpensive and adjustable nylon. I advise you to wait until your puppy has reached adulthood (15 months) before investing in a nice leather type collar etc...

- Bowls, water bowls; the steel and stainless steel bowls are of very good quality, easy to clean and resistant. I therefore advise you to turn to this type of product. You will have one provided in the puppy kit.

- Sleeping ; I strongly advise you to go for plastic baskets which are very resistant to bites.

You can complete the basket with a cushion or vet bed of the same dimensions.

- Toys; There are some in my selection but it's up to you to choose the toys, remember to take toys that are neither too small nor too big. Toys that you can put treats in will keep your puppy busy and thinking. Beware of stuffed animals, only under supervision (risk of ingestion of foam, plastic eye/nose, etc.).

- Cage and Crate; If you opt for a transport cage, take it in plastic, fabric transport cages are much too fragile. At first, puppies tend to scratch on the screen door to get out.

- Ears & Eyes ; I advise you to buy special eye/ear wipes which are very practical.

- Grooming; “Special One” cosmetics are the best!!! The "Aqua Rosa" shampoo which can be diluted with water coupled with the "mix pink" detangler to be applied while brushing will be perfect for your puppy.

- Brushes, Combs; A large carder and a bristle brush, this brush is very practical because thanks to its long "teeth" it penetrates well into the hair and detangles down to the base of the hair, ideal to use with a detangler such as the "mix pink" (see the grooming section above). I STRONGLY DO NOT RECOMMEND CURDIES AS IT DAMAGES AND BREAKS THE HAIR!!!!

- Scissors; No matter what chisel you take, it has to be straight. You will use it to cut the excess hair that protrudes between the pads so that your dog has a better grip on the ground (VERY IMPORTANT FOR HIS LEVELS). It also prevents dirt from sticking to it.

- Nails; I advise you to take the claw clipper which is VERY IMPORTANT FOR YOUR DOG'S LEGS, as is the maintenance of the hair under the paws. Well-trimmed claws are claws that do not touch the ground. DURING THE VETERINARY VISIT AFTER 3 MONTHS, REMEMBER TO ASK YOUR VETERINARIAN TO SHOW YOU HOW TO DO IT.

I HOPE ALL THESE ADVICE CAN GUIDE YOU TO PREPARE YOU BEST FOR THE ARRIVAL OF YOUR PUPPY.

If you have any questions, don't hesitate!!!!
