May 25, 2025

At ZooPlaisir, we know that the arrival of a puppy is an adventure full of joy... but also of questions! To create a calm and supportive environment, here are some simple tips to follow to ensure their first steps at home are a success 🐶


Create a reassuring space
Your puppy needs a quiet corner of his own.
Provide a comfortable basket, a soft blanket and some toys
This little cocoon will help him feel safe from the first days


Secure your environment
Hide cables, toxic products and fragile objects
Use barriers to limit access to stairs or sensitive rooms
A puppy is curious by nature!


Adapt your diet
Choose special puppy kibble rich in nutrients
Keep a bowl of fresh water always accessible
No need for excessive treats, everything is new to him 😋


Establish a routine
Puppies love landmarks
Regular schedules for meals, outings and rest times will help him gain confidence.
It also makes potty training easier


Show gentleness and patience
Each puppy learns at its own pace
Encourage, praise and stay consistent
Ignore minor missteps, focus on positive reinforcements 💕
