Is Petco vet care good for my new puppy, or should I find another vet?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

Hello! In about two weeks I will be getting my first puppy. She will be 6 weeks old at this time and is a German Pinscher. Should I seek out a vet to help with my puppy or is it okay to stick with petco?

I always recommend having a good relationship with a vet so that they can follow your puppy's growth and medical issues over time. Sticking with PetCo isn't an issue, since these clinics are run by vets.
