Learn how to be The Puppy Whisperer and bring out the best in your furry friend! I have been involved in the Pet Industry for over 20 years, many of those spent partnering and developing a large animal rescue specializing in hard to adopt dogs. The trenches of rescue offer an infinite amount of wisdom when it comes to training and behavior modification as half of all dogs surrendered are due to be

havioral issues. I am also a certified AKC CGC, AKC S.T.A.R. Puppy, CGC, AKC Community Canine, Urban CGC, Video Home Manners and Trick Dog Evaluator. My unique approach includes a system that has been developed through years of research and personal experience. As a trainer, my belief is that training dogs should be fun and innovative so that all involved in the process experience the benefits! My training system adapts to your dog’s personality and teaches you and your family how to “think like your dog.”

Your dog is an individual and should be trained using methods that are most effective for that personality! Over the years, I have been dubbed “The Puppy Whisperer” and can teach you how to speak their language too!

🚨🐶 **TRAINING MYTH: “A TIRED PUPPY IS A GOOD PUPPY.”**

Well...yes.But probably NOT the way you're thinking. 😉

When a puppy starts...

🦈 Biting EVERYTHING
💨 Racing around the house
🐾 Jumping all over you
🗣️ Barking
😵‍💫 Acting completely WILD
👹 Seemingly forgetting every bit of training they know...

A lot of puppy parents think:
**“They need to burn off more energy!”**

So they play MORE.
Walk MORE.
Excite them MORE.

And sometimes? That makes everything WORSE.

Because that little maniac running around your living room may actually be **OVERTIRED.**

Young puppies need a tremendous amount of sleep, often around **18–20 hours in a 24-hour period.**

And many puppies aren't very good at putting themselves to bed.

That's where YOU come in.

Sometimes the best training decision you can make is:
💤 **TIME FOR A NAP.**

Teaching a puppy when to play AND when to settle is how we begin creating a dog who can regulate themselves in the real world.

📌 SAVE this for the next time your puppy turns into a tiny velociraptor. 😂

🏠🐶 **THE ANATOMY OF A PERFECT PUPPY CRATE**

One of the biggest crate-training mistakes we see?
Trying to turn the crate into a puppy PLAYROOM.

At Neshaminy Creek Dog Training, we want puppies to learn something very different:

💤 **THE CRATE = RELAXATION.**

Think of it as their little bedroom.
So what belongs inside?

✅ Start with a properly sized crate, not a large crate plus a divider.
✅ Comfortable bedding your puppy can safely have (such as a fleece blanket)
✅ A calm, quiet environment
✅ A crate cover
✅ Your puppy ❤️

And what DOESN'T belong in there?

❌ A pile of toys
❌ Food
❌ A big water bowl
❌ P*e pads
❌ Constant entertainment
❌ Enough extra space to create a separate potty area

We don't need to keep puppies entertained every second they're awake.

Learning how to **do nothing, settle and REST** is a skill too—and it's one we intentionally teach.

A crate shouldn't feel like punishment.
It should become the place where your puppy thinks...
*"Oh. This is where I relax."* 😴❤️

🚨🐶 **THE “UH-OH!” POTTY ROUTINE**

There it is...💦 Your puppy had an accident.

First: **Don't punish them.**
Your puppy isn't being stubborn, spiteful, or trying to get back at you.

Instead, it's time for the **UH-OH ROUTINE:**

🐾 **Caught them in the act?** Calmly interrupt and immediately take them outside.
If you didn't cathc your puppy then first you need to evaluate how much freedom your pup has at the moment.

🐾 **Clean it thoroughly.** Use an enzymatic cleaner designed for pet accidents to remove the odor.

🐾 **Ask yourself WHY it happened.** Too long between potty breaks? Too much freedom? Missed the puppy's signal?

🐾 **RESET THE CLOCK.** After an accident, tighten up your potty schedule and supervision.

And here's the big one...

🚨 **An accident isn't your puppy failing potty training. It's INFORMATION.**

It tells you something about the routine needs to change.
Less punishment. More supervision. Better timing. ❤️

🦟🐾 **SPOTLIGHT ON SAFETY: WORLD MOSQUITO DAY**

Potty trips. Walks. Training sessions. Backyard play.

Our puppies spend a LOT of time outside, and mosquitoes aren't just annoying little pests.

They can transmit **heartworm disease** to dogs.

A few reminders for puppy parents:

🐾 Ask your veterinarian when your puppy should begin heartworm prevention.
🐾 Don't assume an indoor puppy doesn't need protection. Mosquitoes get inside too!
🐾 Check your yard for buckets, planters, toys or anything else collecting standing water.
🐾 Never put a human mosquito repellent on your puppy unless your veterinarian has specifically told you it's safe.

Training your puppy is important, but keeping them healthy and safe always comes first. ❤️

📌 SAVE & SHARE with another puppy parent!

📸🐶 **WHAT'S THEIR MOOD?**

It's World Photography Day, so we're putting some of our puppy pictures to the test!

But instead of just looking at how CUTE they are, let's look at what they're communicating. 👀

We have puppies...

👅 Licking
🐾 Jumping
😴 Napping

Seems pretty obvious, right?
Not always!
A lick isn't ALWAYS a kiss.
Jumping isn't ALWAYS excitement.

And that puppy who suddenly crashes and falls asleep? They may have been showing you signs they were tired long before the nap happened.

Dogs are communicating with us ALL DAY LONG through their bodies—we just have to learn how to listen.

👇 Look through the photos and tell us: **What do YOU think each puppy is feeling?**

We'll see who can read our puppies! 🐶❤️

🦷🐶 **STOP THE BITE!**

Those tiny puppy teeth are SHARP. 😳

Biting is normal puppy behavior, but that doesn't mean you just have to wait for them to grow out of it.

When those teeth come out:

🐾 **STOP INTERACTING AND SAY NO** Don't turn it into a wrestling match with your hands.

🐾 **REDIRECT** Give your puppy something appropriate to put those teeth on.

If it continues...

🐾 **DON'T CHASE, INSTEAD REMOVE AND CONFINE** If your puppy grabs your pants, shoes or something they shouldn't have, chasing can turn it into a really fun game.

🐾 **WATCH FOR OVERTIRED** Is the biting suddenly getting completely out of control? Your puppy may actually need a NAP, not more play.

🐾 **BE CONSISTENT** Everyone in the house needs to respond the same way.

And remember: biting doesn't mean you have an aggressive puppy. Puppies explore with their mouths, play with their mouths, and communicate with their mouths.

Our job is to teach them what those little shark teeth ARE allowed to touch. 🦈😂

📸 Throwback Sunday

Long before social media...
Long before online puppy classes...
There was just me, a leash, a dog, and a passion for understanding behavior.

I've spent decades learning from thousands of dogs, and one thing has never changed...

Every puppy deserves patience, consistency, and a family willing to learn alongside them.

I'm grateful I still get to do what I love every single day. ❤️
