Puppy Class Rules
Puppy Party,
and Socialization –– 10 min
-
Offer any puppy one cookie
for a SIT for
greeting
-
During play, when I ask, have your dog come from
play, sit, touch his or her
collar and release. This teaches your dog that COME does not always
end play. You can also use this
at home and other places.
-
Remember the purpose
of the puppy party
is to increase the
confidence of the shy dogs and
decrease the confidence of the
alpha dogs, bringing them to a
center point. So people be boring.
Reward proper play
and good puppy
manners
Interrupt
any
unwanted
behaviors and redirect
the dog towards another
dog.
