New to this world
Hello! I am rather new to this world and am looking for some advice on anything anyone can give. Things from day to day, how to help her learn to move and be active. What is the best form of exercise? Everything really.
Bella has only been out of surgery a couple of days and I am just allowing her to rest and move on her own time. But being a puppy still she wants to play and she is not sure how.
Thank you!

pictures, we need pictures!!! there’s a required reading list on the forums that will help with the first two ‘hell weeks’. every pup is different, but it’s probably best to keep the horseplay to a minimum during this time. do you have a crate or ex-pen for resting time?? remember, when bella rests, you should rest too…it’s just as hard on the humans (from a stressfulness standpoint…) paws crossed for a speedy recovery.

Please give us Bella’s back story so we know all about her! We are very nosy around here. And we celebrate embarrassing moments, like the first pee and poop after surgery. But you’ll find this to be a nice gang always willing to help any way we can.
Let us know all about Bella so we can give her a proper welcome!
