How obedient is your puppy? Some breeds are more likely to have behavioral issues than others. In this forum you can learn how to nip bad behavior in the bud. Teaching your puppy obedience is very important. If you skip the obedience training you could end up with a very naughty teenager that you can’t control. Puppies are like little sponges. They thrive on new experiences. The more you expose them to at their young age the better rounded they will become. Share your favorite behavior stories in this forum. Did your puppy pick up on the training quickly or did it take them a little while to catch on? What treats did they respond to best? Some puppies can be trained by using their favorite toy while others thrive on love.

Puppy food is the building block for your puppy’s health. Choosing the right food can mean the difference in a healthy puppy and a sickly one. High quality puppy food is more costly but the ingredients that they use promote long life and health. What is your experience with puppy food? Have you found a favorite brand? Have you found a brand that you would never use again? Did you decide to start your puppy on the path of a raw food diet? Puppies need more calories and fat that their older counterparts. Larger breeds are more prone to hip dysplasia so it is important not to overfeed your puppy. Puppy foods that are made out of USDA human grade meats and vegetables are the most recommended. Please tell us about your puppy’s favorite foods and how often you feed them. Is your puppy food motivated or do you have problems getting them to eat regularly. Puppy experts can help you figure out the best route for you and your pet.
