0:01:09 > 0:01:13Today we are in Glasgow to meet Arthur and his brand-new puppy.
0:01:13 > 0:01:16Now, this is going to be fun. Let's go.
0:01:23 > 0:01:28- Hi, Arthur.- Hi, Rory. - And you must be Mum. Hello.- Hi.
0:01:28 > 0:01:31- And who is this wee guy?- Fonzie. - Fonzie.
0:01:31 > 0:01:33What an incredible puppy.
0:01:33 > 0:01:36- How long have you had him? - Just two days.
0:01:36 > 0:01:38- Two days. So he's really new?- Uh-huh.
0:01:38 > 0:01:41- And how old is he?- Nine weeks.
0:01:41 > 0:01:44Wow, that will be why he's so small.
0:01:44 > 0:01:48- What sort of dog is he? - Border terrier.- I thought so.
0:01:48 > 0:01:52They are normally very playful and full of energy.
0:01:52 > 0:01:55You'll need to take him for walks and give him attention.
0:01:55 > 0:01:58- Are you looking forward to that? - Uh-huh.- He's lovely.
0:01:58 > 0:02:01- So how is he settling in so far? - Good.
0:02:01 > 0:02:05- Yeah? How was his first couple of nights? Sleep well?- Yeah.
0:02:05 > 0:02:07Great. What a good dog. You're lucky.
0:02:07 > 0:02:11Puppies can take a while to get used to a new home.
0:02:11 > 0:02:14But it looks like this little fellow is settling in.
0:02:14 > 0:02:18That's great. What will be your favourite thing about having a dog?
0:02:18 > 0:02:22- Playing with him.- Yeah. What sort of tricks are you going to teach him?
0:02:22 > 0:02:26To sit, lie and come...
0:02:26 > 0:02:29- and all different ones.- I like it.
0:02:29 > 0:02:33He is going to be an incredible dog when he gets a bit bigger, as well.
0:02:33 > 0:02:34But he's so cute just now.
0:02:34 > 0:02:38- And what do you love most about him? - Cuddling him.
0:02:38 > 0:02:41Yeah. Do you want to give him a cuddle now?
0:02:41 > 0:02:44Oh! Oh, he's very cute.
0:02:44 > 0:02:48Ferne, can you give us some facts about puppies just like Fonzie?
0:02:48 > 0:02:50'Of course, Rory.'
0:02:51 > 0:02:54Most puppies are born in a litter.
0:02:54 > 0:02:58This means they have loads of brothers and sisters
0:02:58 > 0:03:01that are born at the same time as them.
0:03:04 > 0:03:07When puppies are born, they can't see or hear well.
0:03:07 > 0:03:10So it's important that their mummy stays close to them
0:03:10 > 0:03:12so she can keep them safe.
0:03:14 > 0:03:18Puppies are a little bit clumsy because their bodies grow so fast
0:03:18 > 0:03:21and they learn to walk very quickly.
0:03:21 > 0:03:24It can take a while to get used to their big paws.
0:03:27 > 0:03:29DOG BARKS CHILDREN: Care time!
0:03:31 > 0:03:34All pets need care and attention, but especially puppies,
0:03:34 > 0:03:38because they're young and they need looking after and training.
0:03:38 > 0:03:42Having a puppy is different from having a grown-up dog.
0:03:42 > 0:03:47- How do you look after Fonzie, Arthur? - We feed him, give him treats,
0:03:47 > 0:03:50train him and give him a nice home.
0:03:50 > 0:03:52That's very important, to give him a nice home.
0:03:52 > 0:03:57- Right, shall we feed him now? - Yes.- Come on. Come on. Come on.
0:04:03 > 0:04:06Wow. So what sort of food do we have here?
0:04:06 > 0:04:10- Special puppy food. - Yes. That's right.
0:04:10 > 0:04:12Puppies' tummies aren't fully developed,
0:04:12 > 0:04:15so they need special food they can digest.
0:04:15 > 0:04:19Right, shall we go for it? How much are you going to put in?
0:04:19 > 0:04:22Just half of this cup.
0:04:23 > 0:04:26Perfect. Let's pop the food away.
0:04:26 > 0:04:29- What else do we need to do? - Do the water.- Of course.
0:04:29 > 0:04:31I'll pick that up.
0:04:31 > 0:04:34I'll put this away first.
0:04:34 > 0:04:36I'll empty this out.
0:04:48 > 0:04:51Right, shall we see if he's hungry?
0:04:51 > 0:04:53Here's your food.
0:04:53 > 0:04:56He's just getting used to eating out of his bowl.
0:04:56 > 0:05:00- Well done.- He's eating lots.- He is.
0:05:00 > 0:05:02Good boy.
0:05:02 > 0:05:07You should feed puppies a small amount three or four times a day.
0:05:07 > 0:05:09He's having a drink. Look.
0:05:11 > 0:05:15- Is that where little Fonzie sleeps? - Yes.- Let's have a look.
0:05:15 > 0:05:17- Come on, Fonz.- Come on.
0:05:21 > 0:05:25CAT MEOWS CHILDREN: Wash your hands!
0:05:25 > 0:05:29- So why does Fonzie have this? - To keep him safe.
0:05:29 > 0:05:33Yes. It looks very safe, doesn't it? I bet he loves it in there.
0:05:33 > 0:05:36A dog crate is a good idea if you've got the space.
0:05:36 > 0:05:39It's a safe place for the puppy to go in and relax
0:05:39 > 0:05:41and have a nap if they need one.
0:05:41 > 0:05:42- It's like a wee den.- Yes.
0:05:42 > 0:05:45What else do you need to do to look after a puppy?
0:05:45 > 0:05:49- Toilet-train them. - Of course. That's important.
0:05:49 > 0:05:53You want to make sure they go to the bathroom outside, not in the house.
0:05:53 > 0:05:56That's not good, is it? How do you do that?
0:05:56 > 0:05:58- Let them know by opening the door? - Yes.
0:05:58 > 0:06:01When you think they're going to go for a wee,
0:06:01 > 0:06:03open the door and they can walk out.
0:06:03 > 0:06:07It can take time to teach a puppy to go to the bathroom outside.
0:06:07 > 0:06:10You need to be patient. If they start to go inside,
0:06:10 > 0:06:14you can pick them up and take them outside. They can learn that way.
0:06:14 > 0:06:18Do you want to let him out now and see if he wants to go?
0:06:18 > 0:06:20That's a good idea.
0:06:20 > 0:06:23- Come on, Fonz. Come on.- Come on. - Come on.
0:06:27 > 0:06:30Come on. Come on.
0:06:30 > 0:06:32Good boy. Come on.
0:06:34 > 0:06:36He's going.
0:06:36 > 0:06:39Good boy! Well done.
0:06:39 > 0:06:41Good boy. Well done.
0:06:41 > 0:06:43Remember to give him lots of praise
0:06:43 > 0:06:46when he does something you want him to do.
0:06:46 > 0:06:49There's something else you have to do every day with a dog.
0:06:49 > 0:06:52- What is it?- Walk it.- That's right.
0:06:52 > 0:06:54Giving your puppy exercise is important,
0:06:54 > 0:06:57but not too much when they're young.
0:06:57 > 0:07:00A short walk around your garden or the park will usually do.
0:07:00 > 0:07:03Fonzie hasn't had his immunisations,
0:07:03 > 0:07:05so we can't take him out of the garden.
0:07:05 > 0:07:10But we can play with him here. Are you ready? It's playtime. Come on!
0:07:15 > 0:07:17Come and catch me, Fonzie!
0:07:22 > 0:07:25Good boy. Good boy!
0:07:25 > 0:07:29Looking after puppies is hard work, but it is a lot of fun, isn't it?
0:07:29 > 0:07:32There something else every puppy needs.
0:07:32 > 0:07:34- Cuddles.- Yes!
0:07:34 > 0:07:35Aw!
0:07:35 > 0:07:37Good boy. Well done.
0:07:39 > 0:07:42CAT MEOWS CHILDREN: My Pet And Me!
0:07:42 > 0:07:45Aww! Fonzie is so tired.
0:07:45 > 0:07:49Look at him sleep. What do you think he's dreaming about?
0:07:49 > 0:07:51Going with his friends
0:07:51 > 0:07:53to get a bone that size!
0:07:55 > 0:07:57- Huge.- Yeah.
0:07:57 > 0:08:01If Fonzie could do anything, what do you think he'd do?
0:08:01 > 0:08:02DRUMROLL
0:08:02 > 0:08:05If my pet could do anything...
0:08:05 > 0:08:08he would go to the beach.
0:08:08 > 0:08:12He would wear a bright yellow swimming costume.
0:08:13 > 0:08:16He would go surfing.
0:08:16 > 0:08:20When he was finished, he would sit on his surfboard
0:08:20 > 0:08:22and fish in the sea.
0:08:27 > 0:08:31We've come to the vet's so Fonzie can get a health check.
0:08:31 > 0:08:33There's a treat afterwards. What is it?
0:08:33 > 0:08:36- A puppy party.- Yes! Let's go.
0:08:39 > 0:08:42- Hi there.- Hi, I'm the vet here. This is Fonzie, isn't it?
0:08:42 > 0:08:45- Yes.- And how is Fonzie?- Good.
0:08:45 > 0:08:48Get you on the scales, see what you weigh?
0:08:48 > 0:08:52He's 3.22 kilos - really healthy for a nine-week-old puppy.
0:08:52 > 0:08:53It's what we expect.
0:08:53 > 0:08:55We look at his eyes.
0:08:55 > 0:08:57Nice and clean, nice and bright.
0:08:57 > 0:09:01No runny eyes or anything like that. He's got a lovely wet nose as well.
0:09:01 > 0:09:03- How does it feel?- Wet.
0:09:03 > 0:09:06- THEY LAUGH - Shall we look at his teeth?
0:09:06 > 0:09:10- What do you think?- Whoa!- They're pearly white, aren't they?- Yeah.
0:09:10 > 0:09:13So then we'll have a quick check of his ears.
0:09:13 > 0:09:17- How do you think they look?- Good. - Yeah. They look nice and good.
0:09:17 > 0:09:19Not red or anything. So, happy with that.
0:09:19 > 0:09:23I'll have a listen to his chest to make sure that sounds all OK.
0:09:25 > 0:09:27It's going at about 100 beats per minute.
0:09:27 > 0:09:32- Do you want to have a listen? - Yeah. You listen first.- Here you are.
0:09:32 > 0:09:33HEARTBEAT THUDS
0:09:35 > 0:09:37- Can you hear it?- Is it fast?- Yeah.
0:09:37 > 0:09:40It's faster than a human's, isn't it?
0:09:40 > 0:09:42Ba-boom, ba-boom.
0:09:42 > 0:09:46That's your heart. Hee-hee, that's cool.
0:09:46 > 0:09:48It seems in good order.
0:09:48 > 0:09:51The last thing is to have a quick feel of his tummy, but...
0:09:51 > 0:09:55It feels fine. Nice and squidgy is what you want.
0:09:55 > 0:09:58- He's a really healthy little guy, yeah.- Great.
0:09:58 > 0:10:02Something you have to do when you get a puppy is get them microchipped.
0:10:02 > 0:10:07The vet puts a small chip that holds information under your dog's skin.
0:10:07 > 0:10:11If they get lost or stolen, it's easier to find their proper home.
0:10:11 > 0:10:14We scan them to make sure there's not already a chip.
0:10:14 > 0:10:16So I'll just do that.
0:10:16 > 0:10:18No, no chip there.
0:10:18 > 0:10:21- Are you OK to hold him? Is that all right?- Yes, certainly.
0:10:21 > 0:10:23A wee bit of a...
0:10:24 > 0:10:26- There we go.- Good boy.- That's that.
0:10:26 > 0:10:28- We'll just scan him. - SCANNER BEEPS
0:10:28 > 0:10:31- There. It's in. That's him done. - What a brave boy.
0:10:31 > 0:10:35- A brave boy, wasn't he?- He was so good, he deserves a treat.
0:10:35 > 0:10:39- What do you think? - Yes. Well done, Fonzie.
0:10:39 > 0:10:43Now it's time for a bigger treat. It's puppy party time. Let's go!
0:10:43 > 0:10:46- See you.- See you. Here we go.
0:10:52 > 0:10:55Wow, look at all these dogs!
0:10:55 > 0:10:57Hello, puppies.
0:10:57 > 0:11:01A puppy party is a great way to get your puppy used to other dogs.
0:11:01 > 0:11:04Another good idea is socialisation classes.
0:11:04 > 0:11:07This is a class where lots of puppies meet each other.
0:11:07 > 0:11:11So, when your dog meets another dog in the street or park
0:11:11 > 0:11:14they won't be afraid and are more likely to get along.
0:11:14 > 0:11:16Shall we go and say hello?
0:11:16 > 0:11:19Come on, who's this? Hello.
0:11:19 > 0:11:23- Hi.- What's your name?- Beth.- And what is your dog's name?- Ollie.- Ollie.
0:11:23 > 0:11:28- What sort of dog is Ollie?- He's a cocker spaniel.- He's gorgeous.
0:11:28 > 0:11:32- And how old is he?- Three and a half months.- He's very playful.
0:11:32 > 0:11:36- Do you think they're friends? - Yeah.- Looks like it, doesn't it?
0:11:38 > 0:11:41Who's this? Who's this? Come and say hello.
0:11:41 > 0:11:43- Hi, there.- Hello. - What's your name?- Scott.
0:11:43 > 0:11:47- And who is this?- Ludo. - Hi, Ludo, how are you doing?
0:11:47 > 0:11:51- What sort of dog is Ludo? - Golden retriever.- Ludo is gorgeous.
0:11:51 > 0:11:53Is this your dog? DOG BARKS
0:11:53 > 0:11:57- Hello. Hello. What's your name? - Sabine.
0:11:57 > 0:12:02- What's your dog called?- Benji.- Oh, he is very cute. What sort of dog is he?
0:12:02 > 0:12:05- A black Labrador.- He's very nice. How old is he?
0:12:05 > 0:12:09- Ten weeks. - Oh, he's young, as well.
0:12:09 > 0:12:11Just older than little Fonzie here.
0:12:11 > 0:12:15It was lovely to meet you. And lovely to meet you as well, Benji.
0:12:15 > 0:12:17Right, let's go back. Come on.
0:12:17 > 0:12:21Arthur, thank you for introducing me to little Fonzie
0:12:21 > 0:12:23and all the other dogs here as well.
0:12:23 > 0:12:25I've had a wonderful time meeting them.
0:12:25 > 0:12:29It's a lot of work looking after a puppy, but it's a lot of fun.
0:12:29 > 0:12:31Thanks for coming, Rory.
