to talk to both Doctor. Kelly,
we’ll start
with you.
>> What should a new pet
parents know about the first
year of a puppy or kitten?
Is life?
>> Yeah, well, first thing is
that’s going to be very busy
physically and mentally, but
it’s also so exciting. And so
there’s going to be key
behavioral growth and
nutritional milestones to not
just expect him planned for,
but to also celebrate. So this
is really the time to set that
foundation for a lifetime of
health. With your new pat.

year. Hanover, The you can you
tell us a little bit about your
Wally and how you prepare.
>> Yes, I have a new pup.
A puppy parent. Wally is 8
months old, says still Bobby
still growing is an Australian
labradoodle. So he’s so fluffy
and fun, but it still can be a
challenge to figure out exactly
what I need for him to be at
his best as he is a have
experts like Doctor Cali to
help with his nutrition plan
because it’s important to know
what he is going to be eating
early on. And we decided to put
Wally on preparing a pro plan,
Palm Beach and to make sure
that he’s getting all those
essential nutrients. OK, and
speaking about that expertise,
Doctor, Cali what important
nutritional milestones and
faction new pet parents be
aware of.
>> Yeah, the big one is that
your new puppy or kitten is
going to be in this growth and
development stage up to a year
or 12 months of its life.
And so it’s going to be
important that you see, for
example, a kid and food that
has a completely different new
tram profile during that time
period. So when Wall Uber is
on pro planned puppy, he’s
getting these essential
nutrients like high quality
protein. That’s going to help
support those muscles. Calcium
and phosphorus, which are
minerals to help support the
bone and that he and DHA, which
is an omega 3 fatty acid.
That’s really going to be
helpful for brain and vision
development. So it’s going to
be important for puppies and
kittens to be won the
appropriate diet during this
life stage.
>> And Hannah, for you. I mean,
what’s been the most helpful
thing that you learn the you
know, with this new puppy?
>> Yeah, really. Just learning
from experts like Doctor Cali
on those important puppy and
kitten now not only need it for
their nutrition, but also for
socialization is so important.
I have learned with with Wally
to make sure that he is
comfortable other people
that come into our home
different and also other
animals as And just making sure
that we take him out and had
those times that we walk in
play and just make sure they
get all the energy out. Because
if we’d all I can really tell
with the way the house looks at
the end of the day, so just
making sure that he getting
said well and living well.
So important, right? Because
the house will turn it upside
