What a teen manners package covers

  • Refreshing the basics around bigger distractions, such as trails and busy sidewalks.
  • A recall taught in steps, starting in quiet rooms and moving outdoors on a long line.
  • Settling on a mat while the household eats, works or has guests.
  • Greeting people politely instead of jumping up.
  • Pacing exercise so a growing, energetic adolescent has outlets that are not furniture.

Good questions

Before you begin.

Why did my puppy forget everything?

Adolescence is a noisy time. The training did not vanish, but distractions got bigger. Short practice sessions and patience bring skills back.

Is a bigger package worth it?

It can be if you have several goals. A smaller set of lessons may be enough when the puppy only needs a recall and leash tune up.

What exercise does a teen puppy need?

It depends on the breed and age. Ask your veterinarian before long runs, since young joints are still growing.

Can I start this earlier?

Yes. Many owners start sooner, and early basics make the teen months easier.
