If you sit out a storm in a closet or bathroom with your pet, do not let him (her) out until you have walked the house looking for broken glass, exposed wires etc. A dog or cat will walk through a pile of broken glass as easily as it might the front lawn. It simply has no experience with such things. Also, they tend to bolt when they see all the destruction and are already 'freaked out' by the noise, so be sure you have a good leash or have sealed off all the exits before you go exploring yourself. Otherwise you will be using the photographs you took as a precaution, to get the neighbors to help find them!

When you bring home a new puppy, keep in mind these 6 things you should avoid doing: 1. Never hit your puppy, whether with your hand or with a rolled up newspaper or any other object, regardless of what he does.

US kennels Hitting your puppy will only frighten him and be a traumatic experience for him that can possibly lead to behavioral issues when he is fully grown. Remember that being taken away from his mother and litter mates is a traumatic and scary enough experience for him so be a little patient with this new addition to your family.
Crating your puppy will keep it away from the deadly things he'd love to teeth on and chew to pieces when you're not looking. Make the crate a safe and happy place for your dog by providing stimulating toys while it's in the crate. The crate has the added benefit of aiding in potty training. Teething is a stage all puppies and kittens must go through and it will pass fairly soon. However relieving your puppy's pain or discomfort during the teething stage should be a priority, as well as protecting your possessions from the chewing compulsion.
