Author, founder and director of Puppy School - the UK’s network of training classes for young puppies – Gwen Bailey, joins The Pupcast to help guide owners through the challenges of transitioning from pup-hood to those trickier stages of adolescence. Sadly, this is an age where pup-parents can begin to struggle due to changes in behaviour, and a number of dogs are taken into rescue homes. Mel and Gwen join forces to discuss preventative measures from how to socialise, through to reward-based training and engaging games to help harness your pups’ attention. If you’re feeling a little overwhelmed or want to learn more, this episode will offer you the support you need to ensure you’re equipped with the tools to handle it all. Puppy school serves to train both puppies and their owners over a six-month period, but this bite-sized session will more than lay down some good foundations with Gwen’s top five tips.

New owners need to be aware of how to equip their puppies with all the skills they will need to grow in the world. Socialising in lockdown has brought stark differences to a dog’s first walks, from seeing less people to socially distanced meet ups, meaning early interaction has been significantly reduced. Today’s guest is Jennifer Dow, Editor of Edition Dog – a magazine focusing on dog health, wellbeing, and nutrition, written by professionals and experts. Jennifer is dog mum to Irish Setters, Otto, Lily and six-month-old Alice, so she has experienced lockdown socialising first-hand. If you’re trying to manage poor pup behaviours or want to understand how to introduce your pups during these exceptional circumstances, this episode is for you.
