Think you need to keep your puppy home until all their shots are done? 🐾 In Part 2, Puppy Culture founder Jane Messineo Lindquist busts the biggest socialization myth, shares the #1 thing breeders should do before puppies go home, and gives hope for rescue and adult dogs too. This episode could change your puppy’s future.

We dive into:

• Safe socialization before all vaccines are complete
• How adult and rescue dogs can still make big strides
• The one thing Jane wishes every breeder would do before sending a puppy home

Jane has been shaping how an entire generation of breeders and puppy parents raise their dogs — and I’m honored she also contributed to my book, Your Doodle’s Daily Schedule Blueprint.

In this first half of my conversation with Jane Messineo Lindquist, creator of Puppy Culture, we dive into the protocols that set puppies—and their people—up for success from the very start.

Jane shares the origin story of Puppy Culture, why genetics are only part of the picture, and the specific enrichment and communication tools that create confident, optimistic dogs. We unpack what “manding” really means (and why it’s not just “sit for petting”), explore active vs. passive enrichment, and take a hard look at the ENS buzzword versus simulated maternal stimulation.

What you’ll learn in Part 1:

• How Puppy Culture began and why it’s become a global movement
• The difference between active and passive enrichment—and why both matter
• How manding builds communication and reduces frustration in dogs of any age
• ENS vs. simulated maternal stimulation (SMS) and what the science says
• The protocols to look for when choosing a responsible Doodle breeder

Whether your Doodle is already at home or you’re still searching for your perfect puppy, these insights will help you build (or choose) a rock-solid foundation.

We Hit #1! My Book, a Cruise Signing, and What’s Coming Next for Doodle Parents

I’ve been a little quiet here on the podcast lately… but not because I disappeared. I’ve actually been living one of the most surreal and heart-filling seasons of my life—and now I get to share it with you.

In this episode, I’m taking you behind the scenes of my book launch for Your Doodle’s Daily Schedule Blueprint—how it became a #1 New Release in five Amazon categories, landed in the Top 5 Bestseller list in five more, and even led to me running out of copies at a book signing on a cruise ship. (Yes, really!)

The best part? My kids were right there with me to witness it all.

💛 In this episode, I share:

• What it felt like to sign books at sea (and then run out!)
• Why this book milestone belongs to all of us
• A huge thank you to the 100+ members of my Doodle Insider Team
• What’s coming next for the podcast and The Doodle Pro® community
• How to join me for my free live Doodle Parent Challenge™

Is structure really the key to a calmer, happier Doodle? In this episode of The Doodle Pro® Podcast, I unpack why Doodles thrive with flexible, predictable rhythms—and why a daily schedule doesn’t have to be strict to be effective.

You’ll learn:

• The difference between structure and rigidity
• How a daily schedule actually reduces stress—for you and your Doodle
• What flexible “anchor points” look like for potty breaks, training, vet visits, and more
• Why Doodle-specific routines matter more than generic dog advice

I also shares how my new book Your Doodle’s Daily Schedule Blueprint™ (already a #1 New Release and Best Seller on Amazon) gives you everything you need to build a realistic schedule—even if your life includes shift work, kids, travel, or hybrid work chaos.

If your Doodle seems like a completely different dog after lunch—zooming through the house, barking nonstop, stealing socks, or demanding your attention like you owe them—this episode is for you.

I’ve lived this problem alongside hundreds of Doodle families. And after 50,000+ hours working hands-on with Doodles in my real-life training and boarding program, I created what I now call The Midday Reset™.

It’s not a strict training plan. It’s not about wearing them out.

It’s a repeatable rhythm that helps your Doodle know what to expect—so their nervous system can finally settle, and so can yours.

In this episode, I’ll show you:

• Why midday chaos happens (and why it’s not your fault)
• How overstimulation builds in Doodles—especially smart, sensitive ones
• What The Midday Reset™ is and how it helps
• Why this works better than more training or longer walks

I’m also giving you a sneak peek into Your Doodle’s Daily Schedule Blueprint™, my brand-new book built from my work with thousands of Doodles.

🎁 When you preorder it for just $2.99 before Sunday, May 12, you’ll unlock over $230 in bonuses, including:

• The Daily Doodle Toolkit™ with printable schedules
• A private podcast feed with exclusive training walkthroughs
• An invite to my Live Workshop on May 15, where I’ll walk you through the Blueprint in real time

👉 Go to doodleblueprint.com to grab your copy and claim your bonuses.

💬 As one early reader shared:
 “It felt like Corinne wrote this book about my dog. It will change your understanding of and relationship with your Doodle forever.”

You don’t have to keep surviving the chaos.
 Let’s build a routine your Doodle—and your whole household—can rely on.

Because Doodles aren’t just “high-energy mutts.”
 They’re different—wonderfully so.
And now, you’ve got the blueprint.

Does your Doodle bounce off the walls before breakfast? Constant zoomies, demand barking, and chaos before your coffee kicks in?

• Why structure matters more than over-exercise for Doodles
• The science behind predictability and behavior regulation
• How routines reduce stress, improve behavior, and help your Doodle settle
• What a solid morning rhythm can do for your dog — and your sanity
