Join us this week as Mike and Sophie talk about the very important first step in puppy training - puppy proofing your home. Puppy proofing is a vital early step to create a space where your puppy can get safe alone time and you can rest assured that your belongings or young pup won't end up in danger.

Mike shares all the things that Mello has destroyed, how he's set up his home (and the Scratch office) for Mello's arrival and Sophie breaks down the easiest things to miss in puppy proofing your home.

Welcome to the very first episode of The Mello Files - a podcast by Scratch Dog Food and So Help Me Dog. Over the next 9 episodes we'll be taking you through all of the major topics in raising a happy, healthy and well-behaved pup. Scratch co-founder Mike takes you through his experience raising his puppy Mello, and So Help Me Dog's founder Sophie offers plenty of expert tips and techniques for him and all of the new puppy owners listening to implement.
