Puppy Proof Your House

For a very good guide to all sorts of dog training processes and dog behavior challenges, I use and recommend Clickertraining ...that link goes to the description of this terrific ebook you download immediately, wherever you are! -- Rosana

Here’s a short video I made on how to puppy proof your house — that is, things around the house to check and take care of to make your puppy safer.

If you are the sort of person who would rather read than watch a video, or if you want to copy the list, here it is on this website: puppy proofing.

Starting or Re-starting Dog Training

Here are some tips on starting your dog training, or re-starting it after a break.

This audio file is under 3 minutes, and is based on this page of my website: Getting Started with Dog Training.

And if you would like to download this audio to listen to on an mp3 player, for example, here is the direct link to it. Just right-click or the Mac equivalent to save it to your computer.

Potty Training Puppies and Dogs

One of the most popular pages on this website is the one where I give a method for potty training (or call it house training) puppies and dogs… the link takes you to it, and you can print it out if you wish.

So recently I made a recording based on that page.

You can listen to it here:

Also, here is what I consider to be the best ebook on the subject. Ebooks are nice because you can download them immediately. Click on the image to read my review of it:

Crate Training

Here’s a talk I recorded on crate training, how to do it, and some alternatives to it.(It isn’t for every dog or every person.)

The recording takes a few seconds to start while it is loading.

This is based on part of a crate training page at the main part of this website. I also have a useful page there on dog crates.
