Choosing a pet that suits Nalagarh

What your family receives

The pet arrives with its vaccination record and health documentation, and a 7-day health guarantee runs from delivery. The person receiving the pet is taken through diet, vaccination dates and how to settle it in, and we stay reachable afterwards — useful when the person who paid is several time zones away. Families across North India use this to mark birthdays, exam results and homecomings.

The first week

The first week is about routine, not excitement. Feed at consistent times, keep the same food initially, and let the pet approach people in its own time rather than being passed around. The vaccination record travels with the pet and we are contactable if you have questions.

Preparing the home in Nalagarh

Costs beyond the purchase

The purchase price is the smaller part of the commitment. Budget for vaccination boosters, routine vet visits, food, grooming and occasional treatment.

Avoid choosing on looks alone, overestimating how much exercise the household can realistically provide, and rushing a diet change. In Nalagarh, also plan around the cold winter season rather than assuming a year-round routine. Older pets may need joint support as cold can stiffen movement.
