🐾 Bugsy sent me a home video of him trying out his new toys that Henry’s Puppy School has lent him.
He’s still trying to work it out 😂
Treat puzzles are a great way to stimulate your puppies mind.
Puzzles are great to introduce to you puppy to ...
- keep them entertained whilst your out the house.
- reduce stress and anxiety.
- stimulate the mind.
- realise energy.
- redirect behaviour.
- encourage eating.
Give them a go 😊🐾

Very well done!!
Over using treats! 🍬
——————————
Some people may not come across this problem when training their dog, but some will.
My Henry here wouldn’t do anything I asked for free. So I had to come up with an alternative to treats.
What’s the point in this?
A lot of people tell me they don’t always take treats out with them when walking? Or they are worried about weight gain. Or their training their dog in something where it’s to difficult to reward with treats such as gun dog work.
By slowly transitioning off of the treats to a ball or toy, will teach your dog to listen to commands for any kind of reward, not just food.
How do i do this?
If you decide to do this from the day you bring home your puppy, amazing! But if you have started your training with treats and decide to then change to toys it’s so important to slowly make the transition.
When using toys as a reward, it doesn’t mean you can’t ever use treats, just making sure you using a mixture of the both so your dog understands the ball is just as much a reward as the treats.
Impulse control is SO IMPORTANT! 🐾
Impulse control helps teach your dog to control its self when in overwhelming and exciting situations, therefore making your training much easier and keeps you in control of the situation.
Do you want to stop your dog from running up to ever other dog they see.
Do you want more control to enjoy your walk rather than worrying?
Watch Henry make the correct choice but turning away from with running dog.
He has two choice.
Firstly, he could have ran up to this dog and potentially not come back to my first call.
Or secondly, he could turn away, walk back to me and wait for the ‘go play’ command.
He made the right choice without command.
Get in contact if you wish to have this control over your pup.
Another amazing pup mum teaching their dog the fetch game.👏🏻
So proud!!
Fetch it one of the best games you can teach your dog to play. ⚽️
Sounds silly I know. But it makes the world of difference with their training.
Some dogs teach their selfs how to do it and enjoy it from a pup age.
Some dogs need to be taught it.
Why should I teach my dog the fetch game?
The game fetch helps in many ways like focus and recall.
It is a great way to stimulate your dog and release energy before a training session.
This is amazing Oscar, 15 weeks old and learning how to play fetch. 👏🏻
Another home video from Oscars mum and dad showing the amazing work we have done with Oscar.
Oscar is only 15 weeks old, he’s amazing!
This just shows if you have the right training and put in the work you will get great pleasure out of it.
Well done guys!
If you was your pup to be as well trained as Oscar, get in contact with Henry’s Puppy School now!
