Important Puppy Information

Before you purchase your Afghan Hound Puppy, you may want to look at the care that it will require from when you train this certain breed. Although Afghan Hounds are a beautiful breed, you have will have to have the time to make sure that this puppy receives the care it needs. There are a few important decisions you will have to make before to purchase of the puppy, if whether or not you will be showing yours in dog shows.

Afghan Hound Puppies should only be purchased by a breeder you can trust. When dealing with a breeder you should review their family tree and pedigree papers, which is very important if you plan to place your Afghan Hound in dog shows. Make sure to have copies for yourself as well as you may wish to register your Afghan Hound Puppy at your local dog kennel.

Many trainers and breeds will also promote the idea of buying a crate, and start training your Afghan Hound Puppy on the very first day. Buying a crate is a great choice for you and your puppy. Any time you plan to leave the house, the Afghan Hound Puppy should be placed in the crate, this will save your belongings from being ripped apart, and as well it will keep your puppy safe.

The crate should also help you with house training; most dogs will not soil in their beds. Be careful when training with a crate, this should be a safe place for them not a puppy jail and make sure to remove their collar when leaving them alone in the crate.

With Afghan Hounds you will need a wide selection of grooming tools, best to start when they are puppies. A Snood is made just for Afghan Hounds and should be bought and trained with as a puppy. The Snood is a sleeve like device that slides over their head and ears; this will stop their ears and fur from going into their food on a regular basis. This can be purchased or made by using something like a mans sock.

Afghan Hound puppies are awesome pets to have, and they require lots of walking so be prepared to get your exercise.
