Chillin’ like a villain: How to help your puppy feel safe when you leave

Learn how to prepare your puppy for being happy home alone.

Feel trapped at home? Teach your puppy to settle calmly when you’re out.

Feel like your puppy has you under house arrest? Do you dream of leaving the house without barking, destruction, or guilt weighing you down!

It’s not unusual for people to feel a sense of regret after welcoming a puppy, especially when you’re starting to feel held captive in your own home! If you’re wondering when you’ll get life back after getting a puppy, this is for you!

Leaving your puppy alone is essential for most of us, but without the right prep, it can mean chewed-up furniture, barking complaints, and a stressed-out puppy (and human!).

To be comfortable being home alone, your puppy needs to feel safe and secure in their environment. This webinar will guide you on exactly what to do to build your pup’s confidence being alone so they can happily relax in your absence. And so you can leave them without being flooded with stress!

Who's this for?

 🚫 Not for you if: Your puppy already panics when left alone or has full-blown separation anxiety (this webinar focuses on prevention, not treatment).
 
✅ Perfect for you if: Your puppy follows you everywhere, want your puppy to be confident alone, or you have no idea where to start with home-alone training. 

What you’ll learn:

  • The truth about crying it out (and what to do instead)

  • What’s normal vs problem behaviour?

Thanks to Becky we have an amazing relationship with our wonderful adult dog, and some fabulous (and very funny) memories of the process we went through to get there.
