Does Your Puppy Only Listen After You Ask Them 10x? | Ep. 192
Are you constantly repeating yourself to your puppy? Do you need to repeat the same command 10 (or 100 🤪) times before they do it?
When you think your puppy “knows” their commands already and are just pretending to ignore you, it can get pretty frustrating! So why do pups do this and how can you snap their focus back to you and start listening again? We’re so glad you asked!
Check out the timestamps to find what other puppyhood help you’d like answers on and join us every Wednesday at 1pm PT on Instagram or TikTok to ask your questions live!
