03:25
How To Avoid First Night Crying
The pack animals call out for help when separated from their pack by crying and howling to alert members of their whereabouts. During this video, you'll learn why the crying and howling happens, 3 different ways to choose from in order to integrate your puppy into their new home as soon as possible, additional things you can do to make your puppy feel comfortable and help them adjust into their new home, and much more.
04:57
House Training
Toilet training takes dedication and perseverance, and the time you devote will greatly determine how quickly your puppy learns where he needs to toilet. The time it takes varies from dog to dog. It is usually achieved when the puppy is 5-6 months old. Repetition and consistency is the key to success. In this video, I will share with you some tips to make the transition easier for you.
03:12
Common House Training Questions
In this video, I will address questions that puppy owners sent me on their difficulties trying to toilet train their puppies. In order to help the toilet training process, look for signs where puppies are showing the urge to pee. After this video, you would have gotten thorough and beneficial answers to all the puppies' toilet training questions.
10:57
Puppy Biting
It usually takes about a week for puppies to realize their human family is now their pack. Many puppies will start biting and chasing family members the same way they did with their littermates when this happens. During this video, you'll learn why puppies bite, how to communicate to your puppy in a kind and gentle way, and in a language they understand that biting your hands and feet is not OK.
02:48
Puppy Chewing
The main reason puppies chew objects is to help smooth and loosen the gums around their teeth, allowing the 'baby' teeth to fall out and the new teeth to come through. Different textures offer interesting sensations, which makes it even more appealing, and of course, dogs have no sense of how much an object costs; they are only interested in how it feels in their mouths! Puppies can also chew when they are curious, excited, bored, or anxious. During this video, you'll learn how to get your puppy to chew what you want rather than what you don't want, how to redirect your puppy's chewing using toys etc., what to do if you catch your puppy chewing something you don't want without shouting or making the item even more attractive to your puppy and much more...
02:52
Puppy Socialization
When you bring your puppy home, socialization is vital for your puppy’s integration with the different sounds and experiences he is likely to encounter. It is essential to expose your puppy in a way that the experiences are pleasing and not frightening to him. Some puppies are naturally more nervous than others, but many 'fear-related' behaviors in dogs today stem from the lack of proper socialization when they were puppies. During this video, you'll learn how to best socialize your puppy at home, how to best socialize your puppy with people and objects, how to best socialize your puppy outside, and much more.
05:56
Separation Anxiety
Understandably, puppies will express some separation anxiety as it is unlikely they would have been left on their own without littermates before. Puppies are often lavished with attention and affection and can easily develop separation anxiety when left alone. How we respond to the anxiety will greatly influence the puppy’s behavior both now and in the future. During this video, you'll learn the exact method to use that will stop or prevent separation anxiety from developing in your puppy and much more.
02:01
Crate Training
Crate training doesn’t only benefit you but also your dog because dogs love the crate. In this video, you'll learn step-by-step how to crate train your puppy easily and effortlessly. I will show you exactly how to do it right, why doing repetitions is the key to success, how long to leave your puppy in the crate when doing the repetitions and essentially how to tell your puppy that the crate is a really good place for them to be.
04:34
Grooming
It is important to start grooming your puppy at an early age so that she gets used to being handled. In this video, I show you easy and simple methods that you can do to achieve the results you want. I will demonstrate how to create a good association with brushing, how children can get involved in this fun activity, how to communicate to your puppy that the brush is not for chewing, and much more.
01:58
Feeding Your Puppy
When it’s time to feed your puppy, you can nonverbally communicate your pack leader’s position by demonstrating that you and all the other family members, including the children, eat first. In this video, you'll learn the best way to feed your puppy to prevent food aggression and begging from developing, and much more.
01:46
Is Your Puppy Stealing Your Clothes?
The main reason why puppies love to steal things is that they get great attention for doing so which later turns into a game which is great fun. Another reason is that they like different tastes and textures, which are enjoyable to chew. In this video, you'll learn how to teach your puppy to play and chew what you want rather than your clean clothes and much more.
04:08
Leash Training and Recall
Doing a leash walk with your puppy inside the house and in the garden is the ideal way to start your training of getting your puppy ready for a walk as it provides a safe, secure, and relaxed environment for both of you. Include your children, if you have any, as it reinforces their position as a pack leader. In this video, you'll learn how to include children in the leash work training, how to stop a puppy from pulling on the lead and get them to walk by our side instead, how to do recall training with your puppy and teach them the 'come' command, and much more.
03:51
Walking Your Puppy
I suggest you get your puppy used to her leash in the home before doing any lead walk or taking her out. Doing leash work inside the house and in the garden is ideal for starting your puppy training. In this video, you'll learn how to prevent over-excitement from developing in your puppy when putting the leash on, how to stop your puppy from chewing the leash, how far to walk a puppy to avoid health problems from developing, and much more.
