Adolescent dogs are full of energy and curiosity as they navigate the world and test their boundaries. Their brains are still developing, especially the parts responsible for impulse control and decision-making. This can lead to impulsive behavior—like forgetting previously learned commands or rules. It’s a phase of increased independence and exploration, where your pup is learning about their environment and figuring out how they fit in. At SmartyPup!, we specialize in this challenging yet important stage. Our Puppy 1 Catch-Up class is designed just for adolescent dogs, helping them refine their manners, regain focus, and thrive during this tricky phase. It might be frustrating now, but trust us—it’s all part of the process, and we’re here to help! 🐾 #AdolescentDogs #Puppy1CatchUp #SmartyPupLife #SmartyPup! #SmartyPup_SF #puppycamp #puppytalk
