Recall tips
Want a more reliable recall? Here are 3 fun games to help your pup come running every time!
1️⃣ Hide & Seek Recall: Hide yourself or a favorite toy, then call your pup to find you! This taps into their natural scent-tracking instincts and makes recall a rewarding adventure. 🔍🐾
2️⃣ Recall with Obstacles: Set up obstacles or a small course and call your dog to navigate through! Perfect for building focus and recall even with distractions in the way. 🚧✨
3️⃣ Round Robin Recall: Gather family or friends and take turns calling your pup from different directions—boosts listening skills and keeps them on their toes! 🧑🤝🧑🐕
Try these out, be consistent, and watch your pup’s recall improve as a result! 📈✨

Puppy Training Foundations
The foundations of early training with your puppy make all the difference! 🐶✨
Now, I’m not saying we should be training our pups all day every day from day one. That's far too overwhelming for everyone!
It's about starting simple and setting everyone up for success.
We need all household members to understand boundaries—such as puppy won't be allowed on the sofa, understanding where your pup will sleep and the back up plan
{ALWAYS have a back up plan for night-time!}
What their bedtime routine will be, and toilet training outside — this avoids confusion for all and it'll help your pup feel secure.
Creating routines, beginning crate training, and setting up good management (e.g., baby gates/pens) are key steps to establishing a peaceful and happy home for your pup.
Early training is the first step towards a lifetime of joy and companionship.

Finish this sentence
Puppy and teenage dog parents, let’s hear it!
Just for fun, finish the sentence: If there's one behaviour my dog could stop doing today, it would be...
Finish the sentence in the comments! 🐕💬
P.S. We all have those moments. We're only human and we can feel frustrated when our dog's do something we don't want them to.
Feeling frustrated isn't something we should feel guilty about, but we shouldn't take this frustration out on our dogs!
My tip: be aware of your feeling of frustration and take yourself out of the situation. Understand why your dog has just done the unwanted behaviour (understanding their emotion / motivation) and figure out a way to prevent it from happening next time with teaching an alternative behaviour / ensuring all your dog's needs are being met.

Let Sleeping Dogs Lie
Ever heard the saying 'let sleeping dogs lie'? 🐾
It's wise advice – not just for navigating tricky situations but for taking good care of our four-legged friends too! Ensuring your pup gets undisturbed Zzz's is crucial for their wellbeing.
From bolstering health to maintaining a sunny personality, restful slumbers are more than just 'paws' time. Here's why you (and your kids) should resist the urge to wake that cute, snoozing snout...
1. Restful Sleep Is Crucial: Dogs, like humans, need uninterrupted sleep to restore their energy and support overall health. Disturbing them can deprive them of this essential rest.
2. Safety: Startling a sleeping dog can provoke a fear response or even aggression, particularly if the dog is not fully awake and is confused.
3. Sleep Cycles: Dogs have similar sleep cycles to humans, including REM sleep, which is important for processing information and storing memories. Waking them abruptly can disrupt these valuable cycles.
4. Health and Growth: For puppies especially, growth hormones are released during sleep. Regular, uninterrupted sleep supports healthy development.
5. Temperament: A well-rested dog is often a happier, more well-behaved dog with a more stable temperament. Lack of sleep can lead to irritability or behaviour issues.
6. Stress Reduction: Sleep is a natural stress reducer for dogs. Interrupted sleep can increase anxiety and stress.
7. Healing: If a dog is injured or ill, sleep aids in the healing process. Allowing them to rest undisturbed is essential for recovery.
8. Bonding: Allowing your dog to rest shows that you respect their needs, which can reinforce trust and the bond between you both.
