How to Use This Journal
Congratulations on your new puppy. This journal is designed to grow alongside your dog through their entire first year — the messiest, funniest, and most formative twelve months you’ll spend together.
There is no wrong way to fill these pages. Skip a week if life gets busy. Write one word or write a paragraph. The goal isn’t a perfect record — it’s a keepsake you’ll actually want to read again in ten years.
INSIDE YOU’LL FIND
☐ A profile page for your puppy’s story, breed, and origins
☐ A complete health record — vet visits, vaccines, medication, and microchip info
☐ Growth tracking for weight, height, and monthly changes
☐ A training log for commands, socialization, and milestones
☐ The 100 First Achievements checklist — this journal’s signature feature
☐ The Puppy Bucket List — 100 things to do together
☐ 52 weekly journal spreads, one for every week of the first year
☐ Memory pages for the big firsts you’ll want to remember forever
☐ An emergency information page to keep on hand
A tip: keep this journal near your puppy’s leash or food bowl. A five-second habit — jotting a line while the kettle boils — is how these books actually get filled in.
THE BEGINNING
Today You Came Home
“The best things in life are unexpected — like a puppy who wasn’t planned but was always meant to be yours.”
