Crate Training Suddenly Falling Apart? Do This! | Ep. 232
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Puppies go through regression phases, one of them being during adolescence! Your pup can be doing amazing with their crate schedule, be potty trained, respond wonderfully to their commands, then all of a sudden at 6-months-old it’s like you’ve never done any training with them.
If you’re in this window with your pup where they suddenly don’t like their crate, can’t seem to settle, and their schedule is all over the place — this episode is for you!
