This is a great read for my families with adolescent dogs!!

Adolescence occurs between six months and 18 months of age—a time when guardians typically struggle the most with their dogs. Some guardians are so overwhelmed and underprepared for this developmental stage of their dog’s life, they choose to surrender the dog to a local shelter or rescue group. In a recent study published in the Journal of Applied Animal Welfare Science found that the majority of the surrendered dogs (47.7 percent) ) were between 5 months and 3 years of age (M.D. Salman,John G. New, Jr.,Janet M. Scarlett,Philip H. Kass,Rebecca Ruch-Gallie &Suzanne Hetts, 2010)

The neurobiology of adolescence is fascinating, with some key events that alter both the structure and function of the brain.

During canine adolescence, changing s*x hormones effect the animals stress responses. Adolescent dogs have a decreased ability to process information they are receiving from the environment including the presence of dogs, vehicles, people, or really anything around them. They behave in ways that might feel frustrating or upsetting for the dog’s person.

The connectivity between the frontal cortex (responsible for decision making) and amygdala (responsible for emotional processing) decreases, resulting in less behavioral control. We see increased risk taking and more sensitivity to fear.

So what does this mean? This could mean that what was once no big deal to the dog now feels scary; what was once easy to do is now stressful; what once made sense is now confusing. At times, the world can feel like ‘too much’ for the adolescent dog.

As your puppy undergoes this transition into adulthood their inner world is intense, even chaotic. Many pet owners experience an increase in undesirable behavior and find themselves becoming increasingly frustrated. In turn, our own frustration and impatience can cause us to act unpredictably. This adds to our puppy’s inner turmoil. When the inside and the outside are both unpredictable it can be difficult for our dogs to adjust.

If you have an adolescent dog, what can you do? You can give your dog the time and space to observe what is going on around them when on leash at a distance away from the activity when possible. You can give your dog long walks to sniff and explore in nature, giving their brain time to decompress. You can offer your dog a quiet space to sleep so that they can consolidate memories effectively. You can continue training various skills, breaking them down into easier steps that can be generously reinforced.

By understanding what our adolescent dog is experiencing we gain greater compassion and understanding. When we approach adolescence with patience we create a world that is predictable and gentle so our puppies grow up to be their best adult selves.

July 4th can be a scary time for dogs. Many dogs run away in fear and families spend their late nights hunting, calling and longing for their return to home. Please ensure that all of your four-legged family members are safely secured on a leash with you (double check collar is tight enough), in their kennel or in their house during the 4th of July festivities. Make sure you have proper and updated ID information (verify that microchips are registered with correct contact information). Use white noise, or other calming aids. And, of course, the earlier you desensitize puppies to sounds, the more resilient they become. #badassbreeder #breeders #dogbreeders #dogbreederslife #dogbreeder #doglovers #dogbreedingprogram #dogbreedingofig #dogbreedingofinstagram #dogbreeding #dogsofig #dogsofinstagram #breedingdogs #empoweredBAB #dogsafety #fourthofjuly #fireworksandpets

These are the only two pups left from Willow and Mya’s litters. They are both micro-mini F1b Goldendoodles. They are family bred and raised. I start training them as early as day three. I spend numerous hours on socialization conditioning and sound conditioning my amazing puppies. Every pup tested “high” on the socialization portion of the temperament testing I do with them during week seven. As I like to say, the difference is clear and the proof is in the pup!
