A healthy, happy start with your new dog.

Gentle guides, trackers and printables for new puppies and newly adopted dogs. Potty training, night crying, biting, feeding, vet visits and everyday care, explained one small step at a time.

For puppies from 8 weeks and dogs of any age. Instant download, read on your phone or print at home.

The first weeks can be a lot.

You love them already. You're also tired, a little unsure, and googling at midnight. If any of these sound familiar, you're not doing it wrong.

  1. Crying in the crate. Again. Do you go to them, or wait?
  2. An accident right after coming back inside.
  3. Sharp little teeth on your hands, your shoes, the table leg.
  4. Something fell on the floor. Is it safe for dogs?
  5. Zoomies, then a whole evening of wondering what normal looks like.

The toolkit gives you calm, clear next steps for each of these moments, and a simple way to know when it's time to call your vet.

What would you do?

Pick a moment, then tap a response to see the thinking behind it. This is the kind, practical approach you'll find all through the toolkit.

The moment

Your new puppy is crying in the crate at 2 a.m.

Tap a response to explore it.

These are general examples, not guarantees. Every dog is different, and if you're worried about your dog's health, call your vet.

Hi, I'm Emma

I'm a fellow dog lover, not a vet or a trainer. I put this toolkit together because the first weeks with a new dog are full of questions, and good answers are scattered everywhere.

Everything here is gathered from trusted veterinary and animal-welfare sources and explained simply, using kind, reward-based methods. And whenever something needs a professional, I'll tell you clearly.

Questions

Who is this for?

New puppy owners, from about 8 weeks old, and anyone who has just adopted an older or rescue dog. It's written for first-time owners and families with children, in plain, friendly language.

Is this veterinary advice?

No. The toolkit is general education about everyday care and behavior. It doesn't diagnose, treat, or replace your veterinarian. Every health topic explains when to call your vet, and you should always follow your vet's advice for your own dog.

What format are the files?

PDFs. The guides are designed for reading on your phone. The worksheets, trackers and cards come in A4 and US Letter for printing, and many can be filled in on screen.

How do I get the files after I buy?

Checkout is handled by Gumroad. Right after payment you get a download link on screen and by email, so you can download the files to any device.

Can I fill in the PDFs on my phone?

Yes, with a PDF app that supports forms. We recommend the free Adobe Acrobat Reader app. Apple Books can open the files but can't fill in forms.

Which training methods do you use?

Kind, reward-based methods only. No punishment, no dominance techniques, and no shock, prong or choke collars.

What is your refund policy?

Because these are instant digital downloads, all sales are final, with a few exceptions such as a duplicate purchase or files that don't work and can't be fixed. See the refund policy for details.
