In-flight entertainment? Nah, we prefer in-lap snuggles. ✈️🐶💤 This little traveler is already dreaming of sandy paws and ocean breezes as she headed to Hawaii! 🌊🏝️
Did you know? Puppies can sleep anywhere—even at 30,000 feet! Sleeping helps them process new experiences, which means this pup will be fully recharged for her Hawaiian adventures. 🌺🐾
Who else has a pup that sleeps through everything? 😂👇

When this litter was born, we had one little girl that was stained GREEN and so at the brilliant suggestion of @glammadodie, we thought WICKED was a perfect litter name for these beautiful puppies! And of course, they’re going to be “🎶Popular”😉
Our WICKED LITTER is almost 2 weeks old. They are doing great in ENS, Early Neurological Stimulation, and reacting positively to ESI, Early Scent Introduction.
Thank you so much to everybody who sent in name suggestions! Little Elphaba, Glinda, Nessa, Emerald, Ruby and Ozzy are chunks and we can’t wait to see their eyes open in a few more days🤗👀 Keep watching❤️

✈️ The journey begins! From the moment we wheeled sweet Maya through the airport, the air was filled with excitement. 🐾 During our downtime, we played and stretched to keep her happy and relaxed while waiting for the flight. 🛫 And then came the best part—meeting her wonderful new family in Ohio! ❤️ The joy on their faces made every moment of the journey worth it. Here’s to a lifetime of love and adventures for this little one! 🐶💕

Meet Cookie, one of our superstars from our Sweet Scoop Litter. She is 14 weeks old and has completed Level 1 Training and is looking for her furever home.
Check her out, showing off her skills at Lowe’s! She’s a natural!🤗
The #1 way to change your life forever can start with bringing a smart, loving, happy puppy, like Cookie, into your life!
As dogs progress in their training, introducing new environments helps them grow. Dog, friendly places, like Lowe’s, are perfect for teaching pups to stay focused and calm, even with distractions. This not only reinforces their training, but also builds confidence!❤️

There’s something special about riding through the mountains with our dogs running beside us, splashing through the pond and soaking in the fresh air. 🏔️
At Red Fern Companions, we don’t just train dogs—we live alongside them in the great outdoors. 🌲
Days like this remind us why we love what we do. Our dogs are more than pets; they’re part of the adventure, always ready to join in. These experiences build the foundation for the strong bond they’ll share with their future families.
Here’s to mountain rides, muddy paws, and the joy of living life together. 🐴🐶
PS This is Cap (Captain) running through the lake above. He is the dad to some of your puppies👍 Let me know if you have one of our Cap babies❤️

One of the first and most important steps in training your young pup is teaching them to follow you. This simple but powerful exercise lays the foundation for future leash training and strengthens the bond between you and your new puppy.
Here’s how to get started:
1. Find a Distraction-Free Space: Begin in a quiet area where your pup feels comfortable and safe. Without the noise and distractions of the outside world, they can focus entirely on you.
2. Use a Motivator: Grab some of your pup’s favorite treats, touch/affection or a beloved toy. Hold it close to you and encourage them to follow as you walk a few steps. Use a cheerful tone and gentle praise to get them moving in your direction.
3. Reward and Praise: The moment they start to follow you, immediately reward them with a treat or touch and lots of praise. Positive reinforcement is key here—your pup will quickly associate following you with good things!
4. Gradually Increase Distance: As your pup becomes more confident, gradually increase the distance you walk before rewarding them. This helps to build their focus and teaches them to stay close, even as they explore new environments.
5. Practice Makes Perfect: Consistency is crucial. Make this a daily routine, practicing in different locations as your pup becomes more comfortable. Soon enough, your pup will naturally stay by your side, making leash training a breeze.
By teaching your pup to follow you, you’re not just training them to walk on a leash—you’re building trust and communication.
This early training sets the stage for a lifetime of happy, stress-free walks together. Remember, the journey is just as important as the destination.
Enjoy these early moments with your pup, and watch as they grow into a well-behaved companion who’s eager to be by your side. 🐾

We count down until we can see those beautiful eyes! The time has arrived ✨
Puppies eyes and ears are sealed closed until they are about 14 days old. Our little ones are very advanced with their eyes opening on day 12 😉
Theme voting will start in a couple of days so stay tuned🤗

Nala and her 9 puppies are thriving! Puppies are 3 days old and just started ENS (Early Neurological Stimulation) and ESI (Early Scent Introduction) today and it obviously gave them quite the appetite😅
