<p>“Puppies will be overwhelming because they’re puppies,” Ruiz said. “Never be afraid to ask questions … You’ve got a vet and you’re not sure, dial that number, call the vet and explain it to [them] and they’ll help you, whatever it is. Come to your local store and find out what they might have that might help you, whatever the problem that you’re facing.”</p>
