School's back early for your new puppy!  The RSPCA WA is holding Puppy Kindy classes at our Kelmscott, Midland and Wangara stores for pups over 8 weeks but younger than 13 weeks.  This is the ideal time for training as their brains are the most receptive to learning, and who is more qualified than the RSPCA WA Trainers?  

The lessons that a pup learns now will last a lifetime and make them a happy, friendly and relaxed dog that can cope with new experiences as well as meeting other dogs down the park.  You will learn a lot too, such as training techniques to prevent those unwanted behaviours such as toileting accidents, chewing, jumping, barking and destructive behaviour.

To find our more and enrol, visit the RSPCA WA website.  We're especially thrilled to be working with the RSPCA WA since the course fees for Puppy Kindy contribute to the rescue, rehabilitation and rehoming of animals in need.

It certainly pays to be a member of our Customer Care Club, or CCC as we like to call it.  Since you're already a member, you're not only earning loyalty points but you're also getting the chance to save with our CCC Member Only deals.  We've shown a few of them below but there are also plenty more in store.  Remember, these are all year round and are applied automatically as soon as you mention that you are a CCC member.    
 
We hope you're enjoying the start of 2019.  See you soon!

From all of the team at Better Pets and Gardens.

Puppies add fun, warmth and lots of love to a home and some even feel that no family is complete without a dog.  Kids learn the skill of responsibility with a puppy, and the companionship and happiness is obvious as they grow up together.  Puppies develop a personality of their own which somehow always complements that of the family.  Who can resist owning a furry little bundle of joy?

There's so much to learn when a new puppy joins the family.  When the pup has settled into its new home and a routine has been developed, the fun can begin but getting through the first few days can be a harrowing experience for everyone.  Planning and preparation will get everyone off to a good start and make this time of transition as easy as possible.

We have some terrific Puppy Care fact sheets on our website that will give some guidance and advice for coping with the first few days of a puppy joining the family.  Click here for "Better Advice for Puppy's First Week".
