Tonight we worked on handling exercises, maintaining control of your puppy while they are off leash, and recall. We practiced handling paws and began teaching the puppies to offer each paw on their own for examination, introduced dog toothpaste and made our first steps towards tooth brushing, and the puppies were left off leash for most of the night to work on their attention and focus without the leash present, and to give everyone lots of opportunities to work on and reward their puppy's recall. Of course, we hand plenty of play time too!
At home continue to work on handling your puppy's feet and face, and practice the basic behaviors they've already learned.
