You see another dog approaching. Your puppy gets excited. And the other dog parent asks: “Does your puppy want to say “hi”? My dog’s super friendly!”

One of the most common questions new puppy parents ask is: “When should I start training my puppy?” Many people assume training begins once the puppy is older. But in reality, training starts the moment your puppy arrives home.

When it comes to puppies, biting/mouthing/nipping is usually at the top of the list of the most common complaints I hear about from new paw-rents! I can also personally relate after fostering quite a few puppies myself in the past who were determined to bite (in the cutest way) every inch of my skin! :)

When my dog is crying/whining in his/her crate at night, should I let them “cry it out”, so as not to encourage this behavior? This question is, by far, the most common question that I receive on crate training.

A great and alternative way to feed your puppy her daily meal is to ask her for behaviors and reward her with her kibble every time she is successful.

Crate training is essential for successful potty training. It helps create a private spot for your puppy & allows your pup to travel safely in a car, or on an airplane.
