Teaching Puppies to Relax (Aka Installing an Off Switch)
In this episode of Pandemic Puppy, Kayla discusses teaching your puppy to relax!
How can you get your puppy to relax?
First things first, you need to meet your puppy’s needs!
Make sure they are getting enough rest
Pay for what you like! If they lay down at your feet, reward them for it with a chew, which will help build duration.
Be cautious of rewarding too heavily because they may start offering other behavior for rewards
Set up the environment for success.
Utilize the puppy pen when you can!
Don’t have too high of expectations at the start. They are still puppies!
Layer in distractions and take your timeTake your skills on the road!
Adjust your expectations as they age and expect the unexpected
Again, meet your puppy’s needs! These needs will change as they age
