Dr. Feinberg’s Advice
Shot Schedule
Week 7, 10, 13, 17 (every 3 weeks from when shot schedule was started.)
Heartworm Pill – July 1st -  give on the first of each month.

Gave us a puppy packet and discussed the use of treats as lures to train puppies.  Should be faded out over time.  Give treats immediately after desired response.
