Should I wait until my puppy is 6 months old before I start training him/her?

Written By June Park

On the latest episode of The Family Pupz Podcast, we asked the founder of Paws For Thought Dog Training, Maddie Messina, whether we should wait until our puppy is 6 months old before training him/her.

We loved what she said about making training less cue/command focused, and more about prioritizing the building of positive associations.

To listen to the rest of the conversation with Maddie, check out the podcast episode below:
