Puppy Haul: I SPENT OVER $2000 ON MY NEW PUPPY

[@maddison5134]

i wish more dog owners are like you!! its so refreshing to see an owner actually taking control and putting in the work and having rules and boundaries with your puppy. im not suprised haha i work in a pet store in australia (i'm also a puppy school instructor) and people have no clue what breed they bought and what it was designed etc etc etc

[@DaljiImara]

Omg yes. I did MAJOR research before going into this. I want to make sure my puppy is happy and safe for both of our sanity. Too many dog Owens getting dogs simply because their cute & that makes life a living hell for everyone.

[@TT_AND_JOJO]

@@DaljiImara same I look at soo many when I say soo many I look at a lot

[@AliciaBledowska]

The fact that you don't need even half of this really surprises me how much new puppy parents will get all of this and half of it won't even be used

[@DaljiImara]

Hi. My baby just turned 3 and all of it was used and I still ended up by more things throughout the years. You are free to buy whatever you need for your own puppy just as I did with mine. Have a great day!

[@jakenlivsmommy]

I have watched dozens/maybe hundreds of puppy haul videos. This is the best and most informative one hands down. Plus you're funny too! Thank you so much for the info. It's obvious your pup is going to be well loved and well cared for!

[@DaljiImara]

Yay that makes me so happy. I was in the same position when trying to figure out what to get for my puppy. None of the videos I watched were super informative. So I made sure to make a video that was very informative, instead just “look at all of this stuff I bought my puppy”

[@jakenlivsmommy]

@@DaljiImara I'm back re-watching this video. It's my favorite! I found a Shiba Inu sheltie mix abandoned and I took her home. Haven't had a puppy in 20 years and this video has helped me so much! I subbed because you're just awesome! Also, I bought the Diggs crate because of this video!

[@DaljiImara]

Yasss. You will love it, it’s absolutely perfect

[@Herdingandhounds]

So far on my Amazon list, for my future puppy. (Not for another few years probably.) It’s added up to almost 800$. Plus more adding food supplies, etc, every few/3 months for usual stuff, I’ve did the math. Other supplies like bathing stuff, I’ll get when the first stuff is almost out. I’m 13 and am saving up the money fully by myself, I’m planning to take full responsibility. I’ll be prepared for vet bills aswell. Planning to get a male golden retriever. I plan on naming him Skipper after a past dog. I originally wanted a corgi, but my plans for what I want a dog for changed. I want a disc dog, swimming dog/adventure dog, easy to train/eager to please, but 100% family friendly content dog. I just didn’t think a corgi would be good for that, especially the disc part cause there spine.

[@cowboy_rockstar]

Yeah I'm saving for my future dog too. I'm 18 and I'm going to have to wait till I move out cause my mom is adamant about having no responsibility for taking care of my dog 😂. I'm gonna name mine Andy

[@Herdingandhounds]

@@cowboy_rockstar Its worth the wait! My mom ended up surprising me with a Australian Cattle Dog mix puppy, for my 14th birthday. His name is Loki! It’s definitely worth it. Just beware of the puppy teething😩. Best thing I bought was puppy benebones! Literal lifesaver!

[@mariaclaraprazeres1707]

This is the best puppy haul ever, such a responsable owner!!! I want to be like that

[@DaljiImara]

I have been researching forever. I wanted to do it right. So happy to hear you enjoyed it

[@Jay_is]

I wish there was more people like you it’s so good seeing people like you actually taking care of their pets correctly and having rules and boundaries for you and your dog it’s gonna be every day life thing so you have everything ready you’re prepared and you’re just giving the most facts someone can ask for

[@winterevans6333]

Number 1, you made some awesome points in your video. Too many to name. Number 2, as a groomer who owns and grooms standard poodles on the daily, I highly recommend getting a slicker brush and a metal comb. The miracle coat small slicker brush would be perfect for your baby. Always brush with the slicker brush and then follow that up with the comb. If you can get the comb through the hair from root to tip, you’re doing a great job with brushing, and your groomer will thank you!! Congratulations on your new baby!!

[@DaljiImara]

Thank you. I’ve definitely got a slicker brush

[@vice411]

Also a groomer and 💯% approve this message !

[@mobstercrow7515]

I'm getting a standard poodle and I've spent 900 dollars on supplies so far... I already had a crate, pen, and gates from my other doggos luckily! His name is Carlito and I am getting him in June, he will be my 3rd service dog. I can't wait to start bonding and training with him! Some tips: You should have 4 kongs per dog so you can fill it with their meals. When my 2nd service dog was a puppy, I mixed his food with water and put it in a kong and froze it. I always put a straw inside of it because the tiny hole in the kong stops it from creating suction and sucking your dogs tongue in, if the hole is blocked with ice, it could be dangerous. Kitchi was 6 months old when we adopted him and he was a bit shorter than our full grown male boxer, we could not find a crate big enough for him so we used a playpen instead. He was fed from the kongs which helped with separation anxiety and it was a fun game for him! He is almost 6 and I spoon feed him now. He will not eat out of bowls, slow feeder bowls, plates, mats, or anything else. He is a 70 pound, 24in tall Rhodesian Ridgeback mix... I use a Japanese soup spoon when I feed him, he eats very slowly so it takes about 30 minutes per meal to feed him, but it's worth it!

[@juliafernandez1100]

Thank you so much for pointing so much out

[@DaljiImara]

You are so welcome

[@annienava2453]

Not gunna lie, I am a pet professional, and I'm going to get a puppy next year. I'm obsessively watching puppy hauls. I mostly roll my eyes at what people are saying. But GURL!!! You did your research!!! I love it!!! Amazing amazing, amazing!!!! I haven't looked at when you made this video, but the only thing I would change about your haul is the brush. Chris Christian slicker brush and get a comb. But women, you deserve all the flowers for this video!

[@DaljiImara]

Hey! Yes this was 3 years ago I have definitely upgraded his grooming tools lol. I prepared for him as If I was having a human baby lol. I wouldn’t change a thing

[@arubiana]

This video is so refreshing! I’ve been looking for a practical puppy haul, since I’m planning on adding a toy breed to my life. Thanks!

[@DaljiImara]

Yayyyyy

[@WinnieDaou]

The bunny plush toy and its meaning! ♥️♥️♥️♥️ I'm so proud of you! You manifest and planned for it, you're a good pawrent ♥️ Wish more people took pawrenthood a bit more serious and were as responsible as you are.

[@DaljiImara]

Thank you so much. I’ve had my baby for 2 months now & it has been the best months of my life. I’m so happy I didn’t do this on impulse and took my Tyumen to ensure I was ready

[@saljackson2562]

I’m new to your channel and I’m so happy that I found you . I’m getting a terrier and I’ve been looking at videos like crazy. I’m so happy that I found your Chanel . I’m learning so much I’m happy .

[@DaljiImara]

Congratulations on your bee baby. It’ll be so much fun

[@BritgirlTX]

🐩I am so following you and your poodle! We have a Schnauzer and a Yorkshire Terrier. I can't wait to binge watch your vlogs and see how it's going. (today is 3.30.2022). Congrats on getting your puppy ... you are prepared! Good luck on this new venture! New subbie for sure! (I'll follow bougie the poodle too!) 🐾🐾

[@rosco3221]

You are right about that, I’ve been doing so much research ever for years, b4 I got my pup

[@ImHer1988]

I just got my baby today 🥰 before I picked her up I went and bought her so much stuff 😩 felt like I was shopping for newborn baby 😂

[@DaljiImara]

Right. It’s so expensive, but I had so much fun buying everything. Congratulations on your new baby

[@tyrannicaltrix1445]

Girl I LOVE your passion. I can already tell your poodle is gonna be so well cared for; How does the CHI shampoo work for you?

[@DaljiImara]

Thank you. Its sooo bomb. I’m still using it a year later

[@sarahquinn7561]

A slicker brush is best for poodles!

[@DaljiImara]

ok thank you for the tip

[@saljackson2562]

I’m excited I get my puppy in a month thanks so much for all of your advise .

[@PeyaAnnaMarie]

Love the tuft & needle bed!

[@DaljiImara]

The best!

[@pippasmom9369]

Wish more pet parents were like you!

[@DaljiImara]

Aww thank you

[@childishkayia4818]

I’ve been watching all kinds of dog videos since the pandemic such as training, halls, essentials, you name it I’ve watched it but I don’t even have a dog 💀😂

[@DaljiImara]

Scream😂😂😂

[@breadbun7077]

For those in the comments who want to give their puppy everything and have been watching these videos like hawks, like this lovely lady (as a pet sitter who has seen HORRORS thank you for being a responsible owner) but don't have the exact amount of money or family support, goodwill and YOUR COMMUNITY is your best friend (except for select items). I am getting a poodle for service dog work later and altogether I'll be spending about 15k on my own on just training, grooming, and vet which isn't a problem, I just gotta pinch more 🤣. Asking my community and going around to goodwill, I've gotten so many essentials (including grooming, training, proper toys and supplements, EVERYTHING). and haven't spent more than $100-150, and will probably not need to spend more than 200 on the rest.

[@breadbun7077]

I've also been told I'm doing too much!! For my dog by getting all these things. Like what?? Don't you get all your essentials for your infant? It's the same thing with a dog! You can't just get a puppy and put it outside and not care about it, you gotta get everything you NEED and in my opinion there is no such thing as too much

[@ifuekoosarogiagbon7128]

What would you avoid getting secondhand?

[@aishahowasis8484]

This video I love to see this is exactly why I got a cat cause I don’t have the time to walk them and etc but I am home so I can be there for my cat glad to see a dog owner do there own research great video from a great black woman ❤️ you got a new sub

[@DaljiImara]

Thank you so much. Yes it’s a huge responsibility, I’m happy I was more than prepared to before making the decision

[@Rye_Daily]

Ok it’s just 1 thing From the research I’ve done was a no no the slip on leash by putting tension on it that can cause it to pull tighter and u can suffocate ur dog and I would recommend using a harness but still having the collar on for the tag other than that great haul and very informative

[@DaljiImara]

Hey thanks for the feedback. Harness isn’t the best Leah’s when it comes to training. You don’t have control over your dog and they are able to pull more. The slip lead has been best leash for walking and training. Any leash can be harmful when not used properly

[@chalottavessell8479]

Thank you so much I also have wanted a dog..shih Tzu for years and I have been preparing especially for what a shih Tzu Needs.. watching videos and reading lot's.. Marshall and t tjmaxx are bomb for pet's.. thanks for all the information and tip's..much appreciated 👍

[@DaljiImara]

No problem let me know if you have anymore questions

[@rosco3221]

You are by far the most informative tho it’s great

[@november_wc]

You are going to be an amazing owner!

[@DaljiImara]

Thank you so much. It’s been a year that I’ve had him now and I’m obsessed 🤩

[@saljackson2562]

I wanted to tell you that I had purchased all of the grooming products for my dog and completely forgot about a towel lol 😂

[@shego4893]

Yes your so right gurl! I’m getting a husky puppy and I don’t bother buying it soft toys it’ll destroy it! I’m so excited for your puppy! My puppy is black and white and blue eyes named Sakura

[@DaljiImara]

Good luck with your new puppy, you’re going to have so much fun. 🥰

[@tenanelson7626]

This is very helpful about you should get for your fur baby.

[@DaljiImara]

I’m happy I was able to help

[@miadior01]

The only thing with slip leads and stuff is that they aren’t good for small dogs bc it can make their trachea collapse

[@mattiadizard7431]

Nylabone products are very risky i have heard of chunks comming off during chewing particularly the nylabone bones

[@DaljiImara]

Oh wow. He needed up not even caring about them anyway lol, so it was a waste 😂

[@rosco3221]

Tried to find a pet dryer on pet smart way to expensive

[@ii_arelii3010]

Bruh I'm watching all these vids because I'm getting a dog on the last week of February

[@DaljiImara]

Good luck. It’s a lot of work, so good for you for doing the research

Thank you. Let me know if you want any more dog related questions

[@lunaolive4394]

Hi! Does anyone know how to clean squeaky dog toys? I want to wash them before I get my puppy! Thank you!

[@DaljiImara]

I hand wash them with a sponge and soap and rinse them under the sink. Just make sure no water gets in the hole. Stuffed toys I put in washer & dryer

[@lunaolive4394]

@@DaljiImara Thanks so much!

[@mayap.2157]

Please for the love of god for anyone getting a puppy or already has a dog, GET A PET FIRST AID KIT....just trust me.

Also know where the Emergency Vet is before you need it.

[@saundrawitherspoon1134]

Just kiddin. I know your fur baby will be happy

[@jaysmom48]

Hi. Please don't tether your puppy to the car seat by his collar. Sudden hard stops or any other accident could result in strangulation or a broken neck. Those carseats/ safety restraints are made for harness use only. PetSmart has training classes and the purpose of classes can be more than training. It gives the dog a chance to see other people and other dogs in a more controlled setting. This gives your dog an opportunity to develop a sense of feeling calm around other dogs, not threatened. It also lets the dog get socialized to sounds and people. Attending formal training establishes a dedicated hour for training where distractions are present. So puppy isn't just "learning" at home in a quiet, ideal setting, where he may feel he is playing a game with mom. This setting shows puppy, even though other dogs are here, my job is to focus on mom and listen to mom. There are options for various training levels, so you can pick a level that matches where you are now in your training.

[@DaljiImara]

Thank you for you input. Until he is fully vaccinated he will not be going to a pet smart or around other dogs I don’t know. I did the necessary research on the best way to train him. It’s best to start at home with minimum distractions then work our way up to public environments. I don’t plan on never training him outside my home. This is a process

[@aaliyahklismith4945]

When did you start buying things for your puppy

[@DaljiImara]

So I put a deposit on him when he was 2 days old & didn’t get him until 9 weeks. So I started buying stuff at 6 weeks. Start with the basics + things that would take longer than Amazon

[@Gabby-tp9iw]

''everything bought was I necessity I thought about it will need everyday'' *has a 30 dollar stack of freezer molds behind her*

[@obxgirlie-e6q]

Yes I made sure I was financially ready for a puppy before making this major decision. But I didn’t purchase everything at once. This was definitely over a few months

Poodles are duck hunters and were war dogs people dont know this fact

I love how you are such a responsible dog owner. I’m having a chihuahua mix come home next Friday and I’m so nervous and excited. Shopping’s almost done but this definitely reminded me of a few extras I’m going to pick up for her.

[@DaljiImara]

Congratulations. It’s super exciting, make sure to get all the extra sleep lol. It will be super hard the first month but it’ll be worth it once they get comfortable and catch on to commands. Good luck !

Were you giving “advise” on owning a dog before you ever owned the dog? You can’t give advise when you haven’t done it yet. Research doesn’t mean anything when it comes to a living being. It’s like giving advice on a baby when you don’t have a baby.

[@DaljiImara]

Hi! This isn’t the first dog I’ve ever owned, nor the second or the third. Also this video is 3 years old now and my baby thriving and so happy, have a nice day!
