Answer
A play pen or a puppy pen are really handy as they keep your puppy safe and out of trouble but they still get to be near you.
Of course you will need a collar,
lead (light weight),
lots of toys (only give him access to a couple at a time so he doesnt get bored of them.)
Crate (optional) good for house training and to sleep in. make sure you get one big enough for the grown do and section it off for now.
food and water bowls
Kennel or bed


when buying him you want to see that he is healthy, check his eyes and ears for any problems, feel him all over checking for any lumps or bumps and fleas while seeing if he is happy for his body to be handled.
If he is with other litter mates, see how he acts with them. Is he always the first to eat and start play time etc? then you might have a dominant dog on your hands and have your work cut out for you. Dont assume that if the puppy is sleeping that it will be a calm dog.

For house training, if you have a crate, after a long period of time confined, take him straight out to the desired toilet area and say "go pee!" if your puppy does pee, make sure you give him LOTS of praise. Never punish your dog for peeing inside or rub his face in it for this will only make the problem worse while loosing your dogs trust.
After feeding, sleeping or drinking, always make sure you take your puppy to the toilet area and make sure you go frequently as they can not hold on for long periods (this time will increase as they grow)

You will want to socialize your puppy as soon as you have finished all the puppy vaccs (ask your vet for when this will be) at such a young age, it is a crutial time for them to meet new dogs and people. You want to introduce them to as MANY sights sounds dogs and people as you can a day, try 100 a week. Sights sounds and objects could mean reflections, vacuum cleaners, brooms, lawn mowers, and moving things like cars bikes and skate boards. You want them to meet a variety of people such as young kids to the elderly. You want them to play with all kinds of dogs big and small and you want to take them to as many places as you can so they can be comfortable in the world areound them. Also it can be really helpful if you introduce them to other animals like cats rabbits and maybe even horses or cows.

You will also want to do some basic obedience like learning sit, lay down, wait, no, stay etc and this can be taught as soo as you get it. look up videos on how to teach these if you dont know.

Good luck :)

How did Russia allow itself to lose half of its territory?

I'm reading a book written in the 1980s, and it speaks of the prospect of a break up of the USSR as though it were only "as likely" as a break up of the United States. And yet here we are, 25 years later, Russia is still there, but there are also 15 new countries. None of these newly independent countries seem to be doing very well for themselves.


Answer
After waiting for 25 year old view to prove its veracity & acquiring knowledge about the thought processes of such brains (efficacy of such opinions), why do ask the question "now"? There are people here (Y!A) who ask when the WW III is going to be, like asking when is the next Cricket match between India & Australia.
Most questions like the opinion you allude to, are really funny. It sounds like the heavy weight boxing title bout, War is a mere sport. Countries are like the wooden partition walls. They need to be dismissed with the wave of hand. There are umpteen Nazis (I wouldn't say Gun lobby) lurking here & there gunning down innocent, unsuspecting people & even preschool kids. What does it all show? Some of my people now American citizens, don't own guns. This attitude is deeply, ethnically embedded. Some people can't think of anything except disruption, destruction or some such thing. The sane society must keep them in control (it is easy as most of them are timid or even cowards). The best way to utilise their service to the society is to send them as marines to deal with Somalian pirates in the high seas of Indian Ocean, or into the high Hindukush mountains of Afghanistan to deal with the fanatic Mujahideen or their supporters.
Yet, I think something is wrong with the disruptive nature of such thinking. Even now I can't fathom how an 'Alien' (if you navigate through such questions in Y!A) is inimical, came here to destroy us and all that effing nonsense. Alien or no Alien, it is the thought process that goes into it, at the drop of the (celebrated) hat.
May be it is the failure to bring up a useful & peace-loving new(next) generation that is at fault. I know by now which ethnic groups give toy guns to the kids on their birthdays (never me). In our part of the country the compound wall is about four feet height to merely mark the site; but when I went to Delhi I noticed houses with eight feet high walls with upturned iron spikes securely fixed on them, that might hurt people in an accident. How do you explain that?
It takes all kinds of people to make the world. In the name of democracy we need to tolerate extreme, crazy, infantile views or those couched in wishful thinking.
