Remember to include your pets in your schedule changes. Their schedule is still based off your old routine.
Seems silly... but did you walk your dog this morning? Our busy schedule sometimes displaces our responsibility for our dogs.
Supervision means when your dog is starting to perform an inappropriate behavior, help your puppy understand -Don't to that! Do this instead
Confine your new puppy to a small area and allow them to earn access to a larger area. It's much easier to supervise a smaller area.
Taking advantage of opportunities is your dogs natural instinct. Examine any potential opportunities and be prepared rather than surprised.
Invade your dogs space by bringing something good to them rather than take things away.
Hand feeding your dog is always the best way to establish a strong bond. "Don't bite the hand that feeds" - applies to dogs and puppies.
Always exchange items to get your dog to release something from their mouth. Conflict arises when you try to take something away from them.
Toys on a rope help to keep your hands away from playful bites.
Biting is normal behavior from puppies. Gardening gloves and a jean jacket can protect your hands and arms from playful accidents.
Puppies need to potty after: eating, drinking, waking from sleep and during play. Be prepared to escort them outside - ASAP
During free play time, if your puppy disappears, find out why - right away!
House-training is all or nothing. Supervise your puppies freedom and pay attention to the potty dance.
New dog owners - dog training begins on the FIRST day you bring them home!
New Years celebrations bring fireworks, so secure nervous pets before hand.
Puppies, as presents, required your undivided attention. Remember potty time!
Remember to keep an eye on puppies around the Holiday decorations.
