If you follow me over on our Twitter account you\u2019d have seen me post about the reality regarding being a mummy to a puppy. But you\u2019ll also have seen me mention I\u2019ll be introducing a new area of blogs which is exactly this! So, welcome all!<\/span><\/p>\n

Within this area of my blog site, I will discuss all things puppy related. I won\u2019t be sugar-coating a single thing and will be brutally honest with every area that happens during puppyhood. I\u2019ll also share some of the things I\u2019ve discovered along the way and hopefully some sort of tips & tricks! <\/span><\/p>\n

By all means, I am not a specialist dog owner or trainer so please take all I say with a pinch of salt. <\/span><\/p>\n

But this is something that I have felt enthusiastic about after my first experience with a puppy. I have realized a lot of puppy parents or owners (whichever you prefer to be called), don\u2019t tend to speak outright about the reality and the struggles that come along with puppies. It always appears like daises from an outsiders perspective. I\u2019m unsure as to whether there\u2019s a sense of embarrassment for finding some of the stages tough or not. <\/span><\/p>\n

My plan to share as much as I can to ensure I help break the stigma of you should be happy 24\/7 with your new baby & all those hard moments are to be pushed under the rug because they are irrelevant. It\u2019s natural to find certain things hard & that\u2019s why this series is starting now. <\/span><\/p>\n

As much as I\u2019ll be talking about the negative aspects I\u2019ll also be sharing the milestones, positives and all that comes in between. For the record, I love our little boy dearly but I simply want to help normalised every step of puppyhood. <\/span><\/p>\n

I hope this series becomes relatively beneficial, relatable and enjoyable for you guys to read. By all means feel free to share your experiences, tips and just have a chin wag within the comments below or across our socials. <\/span><\/p>\n

Thank you so much for reading & joining me on this journey!\"\"<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
