How to Prevent Unwanted Puppy Behaviors

In this important episode, I discuss how to prevent unwanted puppy behaviors.  Follow these steps below. Do not have the mindset of “fixing” your puppy, they are not broken.Two parts to preventing unwanted behaviors 1) Before the puppy knows they exist, and 2) at the beginning of the act of displaying the unwanted behavior.When my dog Dixie was with me the very first day, I corrected her play biting, jumping, and barking.If your puppy already has the behavior, such as jumping, correct the behavior the moment the puppy begins to do it, not after they have done it a few times.Stop reinforcing unwanted behaviors.Redirect puppy to an alternative behaviorReward the behavior that you want.If you need help housebreaking your new puppy, visit pottytrainingyourpuppy.com for FREE resources.
