Some cats run for cover when they see a dog, enticing the dog to chase them. If you are adding a pup to a family with an existing cat, prepare the household and the cat so things go peacefully.

Where I live, I see a lot of dogs on retractable leashes. While these types of leashes may be appropriate for some older adult dogs, they are never appropriate for puppies. There are a couple of reasons for this.
The old veterinary joke that dogs are easier to train than people is still true, but you can prepare your puppy for people who don’t listen so that her experiences are most often good ones.
