The week-one shortlist

Prioritise the things you will use on day one: a crate and training pads for toilet training, a washable puppy bed, food and water bowls (a slow feeder helps gulpers), and a couple of teething toys for those needle teeth.

Add a soft, fully-adjustable harness and lead for when vaccinations are done, plus a brush to start gentle grooming habits early. Our full new-puppy hub walks through using all of it.

Buy once, buy for the adult dog

Where you can, size up: a crate with a divider grows with your puppy, and an adjustable harness saves buying three. It is cheaper over the first year than replacing everything as they grow.

Skip the gimmicks. A puppy needs comfort, safety and a few good chews far more than a basket of novelties — spend on the things that get daily use.

Everything here is chosen to be genuinely useful in everyday life with your pet — quality-checked, fairly priced and shipped tracked across the UK. For any health concern, your vet is always the best first port of call.

Common questions

What do I actually need before a puppy comes home?

A crate, bed, food and water bowls, training pads, a collar with an ID tag, a soft harness and lead, age-appropriate food, and a few teething-safe toys. Set it all up before they arrive.

How much does puppy kit cost to start?

It varies, but buying adjustable, grow-with-them items (a divider crate, an adjustable harness) keeps the first-year cost down versus replacing things as your puppy grows.

When can my puppy go for walks?

Usually about a week after their second vaccination — your vet will confirm. Until then, focus on toilet training, settling, and gentle handling and grooming at home.
