A recent study by Merck Animal Health reported a startling statistic that 73% of new dog owners in the study were considering surrendering or rehoming their new dogs or puppy once the pandemic was over. Here's the thing - just like parvovirus that you vaccinate your puppy against to prevent disease, behavioral problems can be prevented with the right guidance starting in early puppyhood!

Here are just five of my top tips to help you get started on your journey with your puppy:
○ Using a hands-free leash from the start (supervising puppies 24/7 when not crated, playing, or going potty)
○ Crate train - for safety, for independence, for easier potty training
○ Safe socialization is critical - especially 12 weeks and under
○ Learn to Earn - relationships are mutual and should benefit both the puppy and the pet parent
○ Include all family members in relationship building and training
○ Focus on the foundation first, obedience second
