How old does your dog need to be to start Gundog training? We suggest building the foundation right away. It is best to follow a training program like Retriever University (LINK IN BIO) that way you have a guide through where you should be progressing. #puppytraining #puppytrainingtips

How often should you train your dog? - We train our puppies everyday around feeding time, so that we can use food based rewards. This means 2 to 3 5-minute sessions everyday. - 6-month old puppies we train twice a day for 10 minutes each session. - More advanced training varies on what phase you are in and the weather. #dogtrainingadvice #dogtrainingtips

A great trick for making your life easier and your training more consistent, keep kibble in mason jars in convenient areas around the house. #puppytrainingtips #puppytraining101

It breaks our heart when an SLK dog passes away. We know how hard it is for the family to lose their best friend.

We have been getting questions about what type/size crate we suggest for puppies in the house. Because puppies grow so fast, we suggest an adjustable size crate. Making the crate big enough for them to move around, but not so big they can go to the bathroom in the back. #cratetraining #cratetrainingsuccess
