YNP Replay: Behavior Changes as Your Puppy Gets Older

If your puppy is experiencing some behavior changes now that they've reach adolescents, then this episode is for you. If you're feeling like your once (relatively) well-behaved puppy is suddenly turning into a bit of a troublemaker—you're not alone. And no worries, I'm here to help you navigate through it.In this replay episode, we’re diving deep into behavior changes that happen as your puppy gets older, specifically during adolescence (around 5 to 18 months). You might have thought the hardest part was the early puppyhood. The truth is adolescence can be even more challenging.Your puppy can start to regress with behaviors you thought you had under control and may also come up with some new ones! And, of course, it happens the moment you thought you had it all under control. Don’t worry, it’s completely normal. There's nothing wrong with your puppy and you haven’t done anything wrong. Sometimes just knowing that is enough it get you through it!

Need extra support? In addition to replaying this episode, I've also relaunched my popular Not-So-New Puppy Behavior Workshop. In this virtual workshop I help a small group of adolescent dog parents trouble shoot all of the behaviors they're struggling with. Over 4 weeks I give you practical advice and exercises to help you get back the confidence and control that you may have lost along the way.

Debbie, you’re great about bringing in themes and questions from prior weeks. It was great to go in-depth."--"I loved this workshop. It was so helpful for all the adolescent puppy issues we were facing. Debbie is great about not only bringing up common struggles for puppies and their humans but also going in-depth on participants’ questions. The small group environment was fun and allowed us to cover topics that may not be an issue for some pups now but could be in the future."--"It was great being among a group of people going through the same experiences. Debbie was thoughtful in her responses and always kind and helpful."--"The size of the group was wonderful! Topics covered were useful and relevant to me, and everyone had ample time to ask for advice on individual issues."
