A calm first Christmas with your new puppy
Puppy's First Christmas is a free 7-page printable for families with a new puppy at the holidays: what to tuck away before guests arrive, who's on puppy duty on the big day, and five simple rules for the kids.
What's inside
A tuck-it-away checklist
Holiday foods, the tree, plants, presents and open doors, plus an emergency box for your vet's number.
A puppy-duty planner
One grown-up in charge at a time, with trips outside and rest times written down at every handover.
Five rules for the kids
Simple, picture-led rules for the fridge, and what active supervision looks like for the grown-ups.
An optional card
For families who've already planned a puppy: a card for under the tree, so the puppy can come home on a calmer day.
Print it, pin it up, fill it in
Sized for US Letter. You can also type straight into the planner and emergency contacts before you print.
28-Day Puppy Training Plan
The Christmas guide gets you through the holidays. The plan takes you through the first month: potty, crate, name, manners, leash and recall, one calm page a day. Start whenever your family is ready.
