Potty accidents are an expected part of puppyhood when you first bring home your puppy. But after several weeks if your puppy still seems confused as to where to go and is consistently having accidents, it’s time to tighten things up! The longer time goes where these mistakes are made, the more difficult and confusing it will be to get your pup on the right track. So how do you do that??

Puppies go through regression phases, one of them being during adolescence!

If you’re in this window with your pup where they suddenly don’t like their crate, can’t seem to settle, and their schedule is all over the place — this episode is for you!

For many pups, this is natural! They’re outside, they take a break, and they go potty! For others…this may not feel as natural and they need to be trained how to do it.

Many puppies LOVE to be outside and would spend all their time out there if possible! For others, it can be a large scarier place with unpredictable loud noises, new sights they haven’t seen and can leave them feeling more fearful. So what do you do when you’re trying to potty train your puppy and they’re too scared to go outside?

Some pups acclimate to the crate right away, while others need some time to adjust. But even puppies who love it can still bark or whine inside to be let out. Opening the crate while your pup is at their noisiest could accidentally reward that behavior and have them do it more so you let them out. So what do you do when you need to take your puppy out but they won’t stop making noise?! Check out the timestamps to find what other puppyhood help you’d like answers on and join us every Wednes...

Separation anxiety is one of the most difficult things new puppy parents deal with. Not everyone will experience it, but when you do, it can be real RUFF. But we’re here to help! Che...
