A useful checklist records how your puppy felt, not just how many new things they encountered.
A clock cannot tell the whole story: a slow sniffing outing and repeated jumping place different demands on a growing puppy.
A predictable sequence helps more than a minute-by-minute timetable that ignores a puppy’s changing needs.
Plan where you will sleep, how you will manage toilet trips and how to help a puppy who has never slept away from their litter.
Prepare for the first meals, safe journey, toilet trips and quiet nights. Buy the rest after you learn what your puppy needs.
