How to Puppy Proof Your House or Apartment | Chewy

The day you have waited for has finally arrived– you’re bringing a new puppy home! Now the preparation begins and it just so happens we’ve got the go-to guide on how to puppy proof your home. As a responsible pet lover, you will need to provide a safe environment for your new little guy. And at Chewy.com, you’ll find vital puppy essentials to get through those testy puppy development stages.

Whether your goal is a puppy proof apartment or a puppy proof house, our guide on how to puppy proof your home starts off by suggesting that you eliminate all dangers in sight or anything you wouldn’t want your new puppy to grab a hold of. A couple pumps of Four Paws Lime Deterrent Spray can stop puppies from biting into things that are not safe, and another thing you can check off your puppy checklist. Plus, this guide on how to puppy proof your house wouldn’t be a complete puppy checklist without Frisco Potty Pads and a Dog Play Pen to keep your fur baby out of unwanted trouble and mess. Chances are your new puppy won’t distinguish between your favorite pair of shoes and his puppy toys. So our puppy checklist recommends stashing valuables up, up, and far away when puppy teething season comes full force. Instead, keep that tail wagging with interactive puzzle toys, like the Busy Buddy Twist ‘N Treat for hours of mental stimulation and fun.
