The

Four Puppy Training Concepts

Explained

These four concepts are at the core of all puppy behavior.

FREEDOM

Too much freedom can result in puppy mishaps.

Keep your puppy’s world small, slowly increasing freedom as they show they can handle it!

EXCITEMENT

Puppy’s jump and nip when they get excited.

Looking, touching and talking to your puppy are excitement boosters!

ENERGY

Puppies feel and respond to your energy.

Keep your energy calm and assertive to raise your puppy’s confidence.

REWARDS

Reward your puppy for good behavior.

Rewards can be treats, praise or petting. Any attention tells your pup to repeat behavior; be mindful of reinforcing bad behavior.
