Supervise your puppy at all times, especially in unfamiliar areas of your home, to prevent accidents and misbehavior.
Use baby gates or pet barriers to block off areas of your home that are off-limits to your puppy, such as stairs or rooms with hazards.
Secure electrical cords and wires out of your puppy's reach to prevent chewing and potential electrical hazards.
Keep cabinets containing household cleaners, chemicals, and medications securely closed to prevent accidental ingestion by your curious puppy.
Remove small objects, toxic plants, and other potential choking hazards from your puppy's environment to prevent accidents.
Offer a variety of safe chew toys and interactive toys to keep your puppy entertained and discourage destructive chewing behavior.
Start basic training early to teach your puppy commands like "sit," "stay," and "leave it," reinforcing positive behavior and redirecting negative behavior.
