Positive Reinforcement
Positive reinforcement involves rewarding your puppy for good behavior to encourage them to repeat it. Use treats, praise, and toys to reinforce desired behaviors such as sitting, staying, and coming when called.
Potty Training
Consistency is key when potty training a puppy. Take them outside frequently, especially after meals and naps, and praise them when they go to the bathroom outside. Clean up accidents inside without scolding the puppy, as this can create fear and anxiety.
Socialization Tips
Expose your puppy to a variety of people, animals, and environments to help them become well-adjusted adults. Start with controlled, positive interactions and gradually increase the level of exposure. Enroll in puppy socialization classes to provide structured socialization opportunities.
