    How To Get Your Puppy To Listen Without Treats | Ep. 238

    Using food to train your puppy is an incredible tool — food is motivating, rewarding, draws focus, we can go on and on! And we encourage EVERY puppy owner to keep a treat pouch of food on them at all times! (Seriously, if you do this, it is a game changer.) But the idea is NOT to use food forever and you should wean off — when the time is right! So how and when should you start doing that?

    What Should a 12-Week-Old Puppy Know? | Ep. 235

    Many puppy parents focus on teaching commands like Sit, Down, Place, and Stay right away. While that is awesome, the real focus at this age should also be building the foundations that make all training easier. Think: - balancing affection, play and training - learning how to exist around you - reward and maker word timing to encourage repeated good behaviors - engagement with you At 12 weeks, it’s less about perfection and more about learning how to learn and looking to YOU for guidance.
