Your puppy (and adult dogs) need both mental and physical stimulation. Outward Hound makes some great toys for mental stimulation that you can actually put their kibble in and they have to figure it out for food to come out. Snuffle mats are also great for foraging purposes, which dogs love! They are easy to make, or you can buy them at pet stores or on Etsy. Getting down on the floor with your puppy and playing with crunchy, squeaky toys will also give them the physical stimulation they need. An active puppy makes for a healthy puppy!

Potty Training! It’s winter and so cold, but your puppy needs to learn how to go out and potty. The key to potty training your pup is to learn their signs. Generally speaking, puppies need to go out 15 minutes after eating or drinking water. They also need to go out after playtime, and after they wake up from their nap. Consistency is key! We love the use of potty bells, and it’s a very easy thing to teach them to use. Ringing the bells lets you know your puppy needs to go outside!

Do you want to set your puppy up for success? Critical socialization periods are up to 16 weeks. Socialization isn’t about meeting every dog or person that walks by. Socialization is watching the world, smelling the air, and seeing people and dogs without approaching them all the time. We don’t encourage on-leash greetings at this age because sometimes this can cause issues into adolescence and adulthood where your pup may become a frustrated greeter. Teaching a “go say hi” cue is perfect for situations where you want your dog to say hi on your own terms.

Just like human children, young puppies require A LOT of sleep. Think 18ish hours a day, sometimes a little more. If the puppy is getting over threshold while playing, it’s time to give a “required” nap time. We like to use Xpens here. This gives them room to move around, while having a bed and plenty of chews if they choose to use them. Be sure any children in the home know that when it's puppy's nap time, they leave them alone. There will be plenty more time to play later!

⚠️ Warning: I don't recommend giving your dogs this toy without supervision.

Phoenix just got her lower jaw stuck in it and we had to help her remove it.

I would hate to have this happen to a pup when they are home alone.

Do you have a snow-loving pup? Some dogs live for snowy adventures, and we’re here for all the frosty fun! From bounding through snowdrifts to catching snowflakes on their nose, these winter warriors can’t get enough of the cold. 🐶☃️

Tips for Snow Days with Your Dog:
✔️ Bundle Up: Short-haired breeds might need a cozy coat to stay warm.
✔️ Paw Care: Check for ice and use pet-safe balm to protect those toes!
✔️ Stay Safe: Watch for signs of cold stress, like shivering or lifting their paws. Just like human children, sometimes they need to be coaxed into coming back inside.

We’d love to see your snow pups in action! Share your favorite snowy dog photos in the comments. Let’s celebrate these frosty friends! ❄️🐕

When you walk into your vet's exam room are they set up with these items?

If so, GREAT! It means they're practicing practices! Fear Free Pets stats up to date on the latest scientific research and develops ways to make your pet feel more comfortable in veterinary and grooming scenarios. You can even find Fear Free certified practitioners on their website.

If your vet office doesn't have these items available, are using harsh restraints, or are suggesting punishment-based training (shock and prong collars) then they are not educated in the most recent research. Ask them why and advocate for your pet!
