A calm, day by day plan for the first 30 days. What to do, in what order, so the potty training sticks, the biting settles and the crate becomes a good place.

Questions
What ages is this for?
It fits the first weeks home, roughly 8 weeks to about 5 months. The routines still help with a slightly older puppy.
Is it training or health advice?
It’s a gentle routine and notes plan. It never replaces your vet, and it says clearly when to call one.
How do I get it?
A ZIP with six printable PDFs you download the moment you buy, yours to keep and print. It also lands in your inbox.
