Enroll in Course
Raising a puppy can be challenging at times, but this course will help you understand why your puppy does what he does, and how to get through those crazy puppy phases unscathed. I developed this course to give puppy parents insight into the needs of their puppies. After 25+ years of working with pets and their guardians, I realized that my clients were missing important information. Unfortunately this important information is not readily to puppy parents.....Until now.
This information is critical to helping your dog grow into a healthy and happy family pets. Some of the subjects discussed include preparing for your puppy's arrival, safe toys, sleeping arrangement, dog friendly equipment, food, treats and chews, building a trusting relationship, potty training, exercise needs, spay and neuter, sleep, health concerns, etc.
