Chip missed the memo 🤷🏻‍♀️

There’s a possibility your next dog will too 🙄

Tell me your “they were meant to learn from the older dog” story 👇🏼

Getting a puppy for Christmas?

Trying to find a puppy school?

High chance there’s no puppy schools operating over the Christmas period, so here’s what I’d be focussing on during this time.

1️⃣ - Crate training. A safe place for your puppy to settle and get all the rest they need. A puppy that doesn’t get enough rest will be difficult to live with.

2️⃣ - Alone time. Yes the crate, a puppy pen, outside area, tether somewhere. Teach your puppy it’s okay to be by yourself. Soon you’ll go back to work and the kids will be back at school.

3️⃣ - Play. Be your puppies most favourite thing in the world. Play with them. Show them how amazing and fun you can be. And don’t stop as they get older.

4️⃣ - Loading a marker. Using food processor each your puppy the number one world they’ll want to hear.

5️⃣ - Experiencing the world. No I don’t mean playing with other puppies/dog. Get them out experiencing the world. Build their confidence.

Not sure how to do all of this, comment/DM PUPPY and I’ll send you a link to my online puppy program to get you through this season.

RAISE YOUR PUP follows the journey of my foster pup Ash. It’s got everything covered. The above, recall, loose lead walking, tricks and more.

🛒 There’s a reason Chip is so confident on his feet. He’s no problem trampling over things, unsteady ground.

Get out and about with your pup, don’t ruin this important time of their lives.

Training isn’t magic.

It’s about timing - teaching your dog exactly where they did what you are wanting.

It’s about clarity - your dog knows what you are after. They clearly understand what you are wanting. It’s where trust is built, confidence grows.

It’s about being fair - setting your dog up to succeed and win.

Cheeto would never have attempted moving his body like this when I first started with him.

I built his trust and confidence up through timing, clarity and being fair with him. I showed him through other skills he can do this.

Confidence comes from trust, helping your dog and most importantly being clear with them.

When you give a dog space, predictability, and clear communication?

They start doing things they never would’ve believed they could.

Proud of Cheeto and the gains his made.

It’s not happened over night, but it did happen.

Want this kind of progress with your dog? Comment CHEETO below and let’s start.
