S5:E15 Mouthing & Jumping: Why This Matters When Training Therapy Dogs
Got an adolescent dog who loves using their mouth or jumping up at people?
In this episode, Sam explains why mouthing and jumping can become important issues for future therapy dogs and what handlers can do about them.
From managing excitement and setting boundaries to knowing when your dog simply needs a nap, Sam shares practical ways to navigate these very normal adolescent behaviours while keeping future therapy work in mind.
