Training your puppy
Most people wait to train their puppy until AFTER they have problems. Although puppies are easy to train (in most cases), it is better to teach them what expectations to live up to before they have time to develop bad habits. Habits are hard to break.
As dog owners, we often focus on bad behavior when we should be focusing on and rewarding good behavior. Your dog wants you to be happy, but it won't know how unless you teach it what you want.
It's FUN to bark, chew on things, jump up and dig and your dog will choose fun activities first.
Learn how to mentally stimulate your puppy and show him that listening is also FUN.
Don't wait to train your puppy
