NEW FOREST | SOUTHAMPTON | NATIONAL
Are you fed up with your puppy's constant biting?
Overwhelmed by all the conflicting advice you've read and nothing seems to be working?
Do you find it difficult to commit to a class because your weekends are full with family or work commitments?
If you got a small-breed puppy, you might be finding it harder than you imagined it would be. But smaller puppies don't means smaller problem. In fact it's especially important to get it right now because it's often when your puppy reaches adolescence that behaviour problems will emerge or get worse.
I've tried using treats but my puppy won't listen
Reward based training isn't about just throwing treats around and hoping for the best. Your puppy's routines, the places you're trying to train, your choice of reward, your timing and delivery can all make things better or worse.
While it's tempting to pick a small puppy up when they don't listen, overhandling at this age is one of the chief reasons for small dogs starting to bite hard when they're older
But surely my puppy needs to be in a group class so they can get used to other dogs?
For a small breed puppy it can be quite unnerving being in a class with lots of puppies who are often twice their size. They can often be too distracted to learn leaving you feeling disheartened.
Puppy socialisation and training isn't about interacting with lots of other puppies, it's about learning to feel calm and confident in the presence of other dogs, animals, traffic, people. To be able to handle the challenges that real life situations will present.
