your puppy packet
what is a puppy packet?
At Four Front Doodles, we want to ensure that you and your new puppy have a few basics you need to start your journey together. Our carefully curated puppy packet is designed to make the transition as smooth as possible.
Let’s be honest—bringing home a new puppy is a mix of pure excitement and a little bit of chaos! We get it, and that’s why we put together a few essentials to help you get through those first days.
Microchip Registration
Your puppy’s safety is one of our top priorities. That’s why every Four Front Doodles puppy comes with a registered microchip through AKC Reunite, one of the most trusted pet recovery services in the country. AKC Reunite is based in North Carolina and is dedicated to helping pets and owners stay connected.
The microchip itself is a tiny, biocompatible device implanted just under your puppy’s skin. It contains a unique ID number that links to your contact information in a secure database. Your puppy packet will include the necessary registration forms, along with instructions for completing the registration process. Completing this registration ensures that if your puppy ever gets lost, shelters and veterinarians can quickly scan the chip and help reunite you.
Vaccination Records
We care deeply about the health and well-being of every puppy we raise. That’s why your puppy comes with a comprehensive set of vaccination records, carefully maintained by our trusted veterinarian. These records detail all vaccinations administered to your puppy, including dates and specific vaccines given, ensuring your new companion is protected against common canine illnesses.
Our vet follows the recommended vaccination schedule to provide optimal health and protection. Bringing these records to your puppy’s first vet visit will ensure a smooth continuation of their healthcare plan. Keeping these records updated and accessible is important for future vaccinations, travel, boarding, and more.
puppy food
Transitioning to a new environment can be challenging for a puppy, which is why we include a 5-pound bag of our preferred dog food in every puppy packet. This is the same high-quality food that we use for all of our puppies and breeding dogs at Four Front Doodles. Providing consistent nutrition helps maintain your puppy’s digestive health and reduces stress during their first few days at home.
Gradually introducing new food is essential to prevent stomach upset. We recommend blending this starter food with any new brand you plan to use, gradually increasing the ratio of new food over a week. This method will ensure a smooth transition without compromising your puppy’s comfort or health.
starter Supplies
We believe that the right gear can make all the difference when welcoming a new puppy. To help you get started, we include a few carefully selected items that are both practical and enjoyable for your new companion. Each puppy packet is thoughtfully prepared, and while the contents may vary, you can expect a selection of useful essentials to make your puppy feel right at home.
Your bag may include items such as a durable metal comb for grooming, a cozy blanket to provide comfort during the transition, a fun toy to keep your puppy entertained, or some tasty treats as a special reward. We occasionally switch up the goodies, so you might find other helpful items as well! Our goal is to give you a little bit to get started, knowing that these are just some basics to help your puppy settle in comfortably.
our health guarantee
At Four Front Doodles, we are committed to raising healthy, happy puppies. That’s why every puppy comes with our comprehensive 10-year health guarantee, which begins the day you bring your new companion home. This guarantee reflects our dedication to responsible breeding practices and our confidence in the long-term well-being of our dogs.
