At the end of our puppy program we take fun field

At the end of our puppy program we take fun field trips off-property! Check out our recent trip to @loweshomeimprovement 🤩

Every puppy handles a new atmosphere a little differently. Some puppies are highly distracted and some may even be a little skittish or insecure. We just do our best to improve each dog’s experience.

When you take your puppy out into public places make sure to keep things simple and use food, toys, and play to help them have fun and stay focused on you!

We typically take puppies out and stay to a certain area so that we don’t overwhelm them. We use toys and play to help them stay engaged, then we work on their focus, leash work, and basic obedience.

Nice job pups!💙😊

It’s important to expose puppies to new environments and help them learn to stay focused even in new places!

Nice work pups!✨💙🐾

Check out Paco, Winnie, and Angel working on their impulse control and focus around distractions!

We vary the level of distraction with puppies, as some have better focus than others. If the distraction is too much for the puppy (they keep breaking command) then we would back off to help make the session successful.

It’s good to start this type of training with puppies, but we can’t expect them to have the same level of impulse control that an adult dog would have.

If you are in a situation where your puppy gets overwhelmed by a distraction and its too much for them to handle, create more distance from that distraction and try to refocus them with food or a toy until the distraction passes.

Way to go pups!🤗💙
