5 TOP TIPS TO MANAGE NUISANCE BEHAVIOURS

-

CHEWING Provide safe, indestruct­ible chew toys to discourage puppies from chewing inappropri­ate items.

DESTRUCTIV­ENESS Pick anything up from the floor, or separate the puppy from whatever you don’t want destroyed. If it’s accessible, expect it to be chewed.

JUMPING UP Ignore your puppy when they jump up, make them sit nicely for attention instead.

BOREDOM Interactiv­e toys that dispense treats help to keep puppies occupied and stimulated.

BARKING/WHINING Ignore, unless there’s a reason for the puppy to cry (hungry, toilet, etc).
