    How To Get A Puppy To Eat From Their Bowl Instead Of Your Hand | Ep. 213

    We are huge fans of hand feeding puppies when they’re young to engage and work with them for their food. But, there comes a time when pups do need to eat from their own bowl as well. And sometimes certain pups aren’t big fans of that!

    How To Train A Puppy Who’s NOT Food Motivated | Ep. 212

    Food is a powerful motivator and reward and (in our opinion!) a vital part of the puppy training process! Sure, it can be a little annoying to always need to have their food on you ready to use, and NO this is not a forever thing…but for young puppies food can make your life SO much easier, help train your puppy good manners faster AND nourish a strong bond between you.

    How To Stop Your Puppy From Chewing The Leash | Ep. 211

But, puppies LOVE to chew! And what if one of their favorite things to chew on is the leash?! (Cause it often is!!) We got you!
