Thanks if you have picked a responsible caring breeder, then your puppy should come with a diet sheet detailing all the food its had and will need, along with some of its own feed (enough to last a few days until you can get your own supply of same). It should also come with a sheet detailing what wormer it has had, and when it had it, and when it will need doing next time. Other questions, depend entirely on a breeed (ie a slow maturing breed will have specific excercise requirements you will need to know about)....has the puppy been vaccinated or microchipped? Again depending on the breed....does it have its papers in order.......can you have a copy of its pedigree. TBH these are all things I would have told to my puppy buyers long before they were due to pick it up. Quote Link to post
