Dream Puppy <3

A Puppy is for LIFE...Not just for Christmas..!

Most new Dog / Puppy owners I know are very switched on and
ready for this BIG moment...!!
You know that before you get a new Puppy.. it takes research, time and a lot of decision making, with family, deciding on your choice of breed, to fit your lifestyle + know the Breed Specifics of the Type of Dog.
This varies a lot. You know that you are preparing for a huge lifestyle change as you know it. 
If you have had a dog before, that's great.
Did you have the dog from a Puppy? If so, how long ago?
So much in the Dog Training / Learning world has evolved and changed over the last 15-20 years.
Years ago it was the 'Alpha Pack' theory,  which came from the old belief that the ALPHA Wolf TOOK that position. Now we know after lots of people have lived with Wolf packs, that the Alpha dog, male or female.. is given that position, and the other Wolves willing submit. 
So, your new puppy still needs a leader, and it needs to be a relationship of 'Mutual respect'.. which I absolutely love. 
Nowadays, we teach + help a Puppy to do the right thing, because we have shown them what to do, created the action or behaviour, given it a name, and rewarded them!!!
Yay thinks the Puppy...I will do that again.. it was fun, happy owner..
cos I got a lot of praise and a yummy reward. 

Here below is one part of my 'Puppy Words', I share in my highly recommended 'Trinity Puppy' 1:1 Session. 
Trinity stands for 'Calmness Focus and Impulse Control' 
So.....
Happy Dog ... Happy Owner... ! Yay !
