Picking up my new puppy!!

In the coming weeks I will be picking up my new Wheaton puppy from my breeder. I have had dogs growing up but never my own to care for. I have read allot of the books and watched 3 or 4 videos and feel that I am ready. I was just hopeing that you guys could let me know what to expect that first day and night I bring him home. Any experiences with the first few days would be great. Thanks, Josh

HI JOSH AND GREAT CHOICE! BUY A ROLLED LEATHER COLLAR. WHEATENS HAIR WILL TANGLE UNDER REGULAR COLLARS AND IT SEEMS TO IRRITATE THE SKIN TOO. CRATE TRAINING IS A GOOD WAY TO POTTY TRAIN AT NIGHTS. WHEATENS NEED LOTS OF ONE ON ONE AND EXCERCISE. THEY ALSO ARE WATER DOGS, LIKE TO SWIM! HOPE THIS HELPS, LESLIE
