- Chewing everything that fits in their mouth
You’re not doing it wrong, and your dog isn’t broken. You just need a plan that fits this dog.
Why the first months matter so much
Puppies learn fastest between roughly 8 and 16 weeks. Habits formed now, good and bad, are the ones you’ll live with for 10-15 years. Nipping, chewing and accidents are normal puppy behavior, not defiance. The fix is structure and timing, not toughness.
What a good puppy plan covers
- A potty schedule matched to your puppy’s age
- Bite inhibition: teaching a soft mouth
- Crate comfort and settling
- Safe socialization to people, dogs, sounds and surfaces
- Foundation cues: name, sit, come, leave it

Common questions
When should I start training my puppy?
The day they come home. Short, gentle, reward-based sessions are appropriate from 8 weeks. Many trainers offer puppy sessions before vaccinations are complete, in-home or in controlled settings.
Group class or private puppy training?
Group classes are great for socialization and budget. Private sessions are better for specific issues like hard nipping, crate distress or potty setbacks. Your plan recommends a format based on your answers.
How long does puppy training take?
Most puppies learn foundation skills in 4-8 weeks of consistent practice, but the real goal is habits that last through adolescence, which is why the first few months matter so much.
