If you’re living with a teenage dog right now… we see you.
One minute they’re sweet and snuggly, and the next they’re:
– pulling harder on the lead
– barking at things they’ve seen a hundred times
– ignoring their name
– stealing shoes like it’s their new job
– bouncing off the walls for no reason
You might even be wondering:
“Is this normal?”
“Am I doing something wrong?”
“Why does it feel like we’ve gone backwards?”
We’ve worked with thousands of dogs, and we promise — you’re not failing.
This stage catches almost everyone off guard.
That’s why we’re running our Paws & Patience: Surviving the Teenage Dog Phase seminar.
It’s not about being perfect.
It’s about understanding what’s going on in your dog’s brain, and learning a few things that make day-to-day life easier.
Miranda will talk through:
• why training suddenly feels harder
• what behaviours tend to pop up at this age
• what you can ignore
• what you shouldn’t ignore
• simple ways to rebuild focus and calm
• how to support your dog (and yourself!) during this phase
If you’re finding the teenage stage a bit overwhelming — or you want to feel more in control again — you’re very welcome to join us.
