    Make sure your prepared for your dog before picking him or her up. Many times will you find the "perfect dog" the first time. Here are a few things you'll need:

bulletA spot in the house that will be his own, where he can sleep and keep all of his toys.
bulletA dog bed, you can by one depending on the size of the dog or make one by using a small rug or an old blanket.
bulletFood and water bowels, stainless steel are the easiest to clean and are the most durable.
bulletAn area outside where it can do its business and not ruin anyone's garden or play area.
bulletChew toys and bones. Nylon bones and squeaky toys are favorites with dogs.
bulletA leash and collar, so you can take the dog home without worrying about the dog running away.
bulletCleaning solutions for mistakes (the enzymatic ones work best like "Natures Miracle"). With every dog expect a few mistakes.
