Your New Puppy: Dog Training and Dog Behavior Lessons to Help You Turn Your New Puppy into a Well-Behaved Dog

YNP #055: Three Important Skills to Teach Your Puppy From Day One


Listen Later

Does it feel like your trainer just tells you to stuff your dog’s belly full of treats and say then they’re trained?  Treats are an essential tool to raising our well-mannered dog but the lesson on HOW to use the treats properly gets lost.

And we really want to avoid that place where your dog will only listen if you have a treat in your hand.  

In this episode I talk about:
  • Why we use treats.
  • What’s the difference between high value and low value treats (and when do we use them).
  • How to know when to come away from the treats.
  • How to ween your dog off the treats but still have a dog that listens. 
  • Press play and enjoy!
