Get separate food and water bowls, a new bed, collar and leash, and a dog crate. Your new dog should not eat or drink from an established dog's bowls. Likewise, it should not sleep in an established dog's bed. Puppy pads are moisture absorbent mats that can be placed on the floor or in a dog crate. They are used when the dog has accidents during its housetraining. Puppy pads can be helpful to have around even if the new dog is not a puppy. Your new dog will need an outdoor place to relieve himself. If you have a dog already, this can be the same location that he uses. Find a spot in your yard or at a nearby grassy area. Plan to use this place regularly so that your dog will expect to relieve himself at this location when he goes outside.

Summary: Gather new supplies for the new dog. Buy puppy pads. Choose a toilet area for the new dog.


Place the sweet potato in a small pot and cover with cold water. Put a lid on the pot and place it on the stove over medium high heat. Boil the potato until the flesh gives easily when it's poked with a fork, then remove from heat and drain the water. Let the sweet potato cool, then peel it and chop the flesh into cubes.  Add as much or as little sweet potato as you want. You can also supplement it with corn and other vegetables.    {"smallUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikihow.com\/images\/thumb\/f\/f4\/Make-Peruvian-Fish-Ceviche-Step-4Bullet1.jpg\/v4-459px-Make-Peruvian-Fish-Ceviche-Step-4Bullet1.jpg","bigUrl":"\/images\/thumb\/f\/f4\/Make-Peruvian-Fish-Ceviche-Step-4Bullet1.jpg\/aid1882011-v4-728px-Make-Peruvian-Fish-Ceviche-Step-4Bullet1.jpg","smallWidth":460,"smallHeight":306,"bigWidth":"728","bigHeight":"485","licensing":"<div class=\"mw-parser-output\"><p>License: <a rel=\"nofollow\" class=\"external text\" href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by-nc-sa\/3.0\/\">Creative Commons<\/a><br>\n<\/p><p><br \/>\n<\/p><\/div>"}  For prettier presentation, use a melon baller to scoop the cooked flesh of the sweet potato.

Paint in the opposite direction to your first coat to help create a smooth and even base to paint on.  Leave the gesso to dry for another 24 hours. If you can still see the cardboard under the gesso, wait another 24 hours and apply a third coat. Cardboard normally curls or warps because of exposure to moisture. Don’t dip the brush or sponge into water before you start painting. Instead, use a dry brush. If the brush feels stiff, use your fingers bend the bristles back and forth. Watercolours don’t tend to work well on cardboard because they require water. Choose acrylic or oil paints instead. Instead of squeezing paint straight onto the cardboard, dip the brush into the paint or squeeze a few drops onto the sponge. This gives you the ability to remove any excess paint from the brush before you start and will prevent patches of paint from sinking into the cardboard. The first few coats may be partially see-through, but it's better to have to apply multiple coats than to warp your cardboard! The more coats you paint, the more even and solid the paint will look. Continue painting until you're satisfied with the coloring.

Summary: Let the gesso dry for 24 hours, then apply a second coat for best results. Paint the cardboard with a dry brush or sponge to avoid warping. Apply the paint directly to the brush or sponge to stop the cardboard from curling. Let your paint dry for 2 hours, then apply a second coat.


An easy way to begin looking for a house cleaning job is to ask people that you know. You can ask friends, family, or neighbors if they need their house cleaned. Or, you can ask them if they are aware of any house cleaning jobs in the area. You can write a letter detailing what type of job you are looking for and distribute it, write a post on social media, or simply call someone that you know may be willing to help. If you know anyone involved in house cleaning, it is best to ask them first if they know of any available jobs. Many community centers and some grocery stores will have bulletin boards where people can post advertisements asking or advertising for services. If you are a student, your campus likely has a bulletin board up somewhere. Look at these boards for house cleaning jobs, or create your own advertisement and post it to the board. In some cases, like on school campuses, you may have to have the flyer approved before posting it. First, you will need to create an advertisement for yourself that details your experience, pricing, and information. Once you have advertisements printed, you can begin to distribute them. You can hand out flyers, ask local business if you can post a flyer, or mail them directly to people that live in your area. You should print out at least 100 flyers to distribute. Many communities put out a local magazine that will be available outside of businesses, or mailed directly to your home. Look through the magazine and see if it has a section for advertisement. Search for available house cleaning jobs. You can also take out an ad for your services.
Summary: Ask friends and neighbors. Look at bulletin boards. Pass out flyers. Check your local magazine.
