7 things: What to expect when you’re expecting a puppy

Andrea Arden is a well-known humane trainer in NYC; Sarah Wilson is in St Louis, MI, & both are USA-apdt members.
The article also includes insights from new pup-owners on the challenges & joys of the new baby.


I especially liked this quote -
"Get gates", says Wilson. "Supervise the puppy the way you'd supervise an 18-month-old child with a pair of scissors in one hand, & an indelible marker in the other."

happy training,
