    YNP #100: Things I Believed About Dogs Before I Became a Dog Trainer

    Welcome to Episode 100 of Your New Puppies Podcast! I’m thrilled to celebrate this milestone with you, my amazing listeners. As I reflect back, I started to think about what I've learned and the things I believed before I became a dog trainer.  I wanted to share some key lessons with you because unless you've become a dog trainer yourself, you may believe these same things.The three lessons I talk about:* Even if you've lived with dogs before, being the one in charge of their well being and training is a very different experience.* Puppies aren't a blank slate.* Dogs don't inherently get along, just because their dogs.In celebration of 100 episodes and to thank my listeners you will receive a free gift if you join one of my digital programs.I’m offering two special promotions for a limited time!* If you join my signature course, YOUR Perfect Puppy, receive a complimentary one-on-one 45 minute video session.* Join 14 Days to a Stronger Recall program and receive 14 Days to a Stronger Leave It free!YOUR Perfect Puppy is my signature 4 week puppy course designed to help raise your puppy into a happy, well mannered dog. You also get 6 months inside Playtime Paws Academy which is where you get direct access to me to support you through your puppy raising journey.14 Days to a Stronger Recall is a mini program designed to teach you the foundation you need to teach your dog to come to you every time you call in any environment.  With 14 Days to a Stronger Leave It you'll also learn how to teach your dog not to pick up everything on your walk!Note: Both 14 Days to a Stronger Recall and 14 Days to a Stronger Leave It are inside of YOUR Perfect Puppy.  So, if you can't decide, joining YOUR Perfect Puppy will get you all of the above!!If you have a questions about any of these programs or offers feel free to email me info@playtimepaws.comJoin me in this celebration as we embark on the next chapter together.In this episode I talk about:* How far the podcast has come.* Why I love working with new puppy parents.* Until we're in it, we don't fully understand what it's like to raise a puppy. * Why who your dog becomes is a combination of nature and nurture.* Socialization isn't about your dog learning to love other dogs, it's about learning how to communicate.* Two free gifts to celebrate 100 episodes and thank you, my listeners.Enjoying this podcast?  Please rate and review it wherever you listen.  This helps other puppy parents find it.Other resources mentioned and related to this episode:YNP #073: Does Your Dog's Breed Matter? YOUR New Puppy:  My signature new puppy course that has helped hundreds of new puppy parents raise their puppies into well-mannered, happy dogs.14 Days to a Stronger Recall:  Learn how to have the freedom and peace of mind when your dog comes to you every time you call! a class="synved-social-button synved-social-button-share synved-social-size-24 synved-social-resolution-single synved-social-provider-facebook nolightbox" data-provider="facebook" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" title="Share on Facebook" href="https...

    Why Not to Give a Puppy as a Holiday Gift

    The holiday season is a popular time to bring a new puppy into the family.  But how we do it can make a big difference in the well being of all involved. Now before I totally burst your bubble, I'm not saying you shouldn't get a puppy this time of year (though there are things to consider while making that decision).    What I'm going to talk about here is why you shouldn't surprise someone (kids or adult) with the actual puppy on a specific day - Christmas morning, for example. We think of it as a special magical moment where a puppy comes out of a box and our kids or family member is overwhelmed with joy.  But the reality is, this can be a stressful experience for a puppy who is also meeting their new family for the first time. If you're considering getting a puppy around the holidays, this episode will help you keep the time special while making sure it's a joyful and stress free experience for both humans and puppies!Enjoy!In this episode I talk about:* What to think about when giving a puppy as a gift.* Why you shouldn't plan a surprise with an actual puppy. * The importance of building trust with your puppy during the first few days home.* The importance of preparing your family before bringing a puppy home.* Alternative ways to make the holiday special without surprising someone with an actual puppy.Enjoying this podcast?  Please rate and review it wherever you listen.  This helps other puppy parents find it.Other resources mentioned and related to this episode:YNP #060: Kids and PuppiesThe 3 Phases to Bringing Your New Puppy Home - Video seriesBook a virtual session with DebbieYOUR New Puppy:  My signature new puppy course that has helped hundreds of new puppy parents raise their puppies into well-mannered, happy dogs. a class="synved-...

    Why Your Dog Isn't Listening

    Why your dog isn't listening depends on a bunch of factors including what your asking them to do, where they are, what you've taught them previously, and more.It's one of the most common questions I get but it's also one of the hardest to answer.  I usually need ALOT more information.  From my experience, I've narrowed it down to 5 reasons.  They are not mutually exclusive.  In fact, chances are it's a blend of a few reasons.  The five reasons are:* You haven't taught them what you're asking for.* You skipped some steps in their training.* You haven't practiced in this environment.* They've already learned they don't have to listen.* Today is just not the day. Once we can pinpoint the reason (or reasons) we can start to figure out what to do next. Enjoy!In this episode I talk about:* Expectations you should have for puppies.* The five reasons your dog is not listening. * Examples of each reason.* How to tell which reason your dog isn't listening.* What your next step is.Enjoying this podcast?  Please rate and review it wherever you listen.  This helps other puppy parents find it.Other resources mentioned and related to this episode:YNP #057: How to Teach Your Dog to Listen With DistractionsYNP #064: The Downside of a Fenced-in YardYNP #080: Why I Don't Teach "Off"YOUR New Puppy:  My signature new puppy course that has helped hundreds of new puppy parents raise their puppies. a class="synved-social-button synved-social-button-share synved-social-size-24 synved-social-resolution-single synved-social-provider-pinterest nolightbox" data-provider="pinterest" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" title="Pin it with Pinterest" href="https://pinterest.com/pin/create/button/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.playtimepaws.com%2Fepisode98%2F&media=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.playtimepaws.com%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2024%2F08%2Fyou-new-...

    Hot Weather Activities for Your Dog

    Just about every dog is going to have some trouble with the hot weather.  For some dogs even a slight elevation in temperature will find them seeking out the shade and wanting shorter walks. The heat itself can be tiring for a dog so it tends to shorten walks and activity.  This will result in us having to find creative ways to entertain our dog and burn some energy. For this episode I reached right into my Enrichment Database (available with YOUR Perfect Puppy) to find some activities that are perfect for a hot day.  I have you covered if you want to play with water, sit in the shade with a frozen treat, or stay inside and avoid the heat altogether.Enjoy! In this episode I talk about:* Dogs that are sensitive to the heat.* How to recognize heat stroke in a dog. * Different types of water activities to try with your pup.* Different types of frozen treats to make for your pup.* Indoor activities to avoid the heat all together.Press play and enjoy!Other resources mentioned and related to this episode:Articles on heat stroke in dogs:* https://vcahospitals.com/know-your-pet/heat-stroke-in-dogs* https://www.akc.org/expert-advice/health/heatstroke-in-dogs/Rover Round Robin:  A fun family recall game you can turn into hide and seek (request the step by step directions)YOUR New Puppy:  My signature new puppy course that has helped hundreds of new puppy parents raise their puppies. a class="synved-social-button synved-social-button-share synved-social-size-24 synved-social-resolution-single synved-social-provider-pinterest nolightbox" data-provider="pinterest" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" title="Pin it with Pinterest" href="https://pinterest.com/pin/create/button/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.playtimepaws.
