In this blog, I’ll cover the “Introduce Anything” method.
This method is designed to help puppies overcome their fears and anxiety associated with various objects, such as skateboards, vacuums, trucks, or fireworks. The process involves gradual exposure to the feared object, paired with positive reinforcement in the form of treats, turning the experience into a positive and enjoyable one for the puppy.
Remember that each puppy is unique, and the pace of progress may vary. Patience, consistency, and kindness are key to successfully using this method.
Step 1: Introduce the Object
Step 2: Add Gentle Movement
Step 3: Introduce Sound
Step 4: Combine Movement and Sound
Remember that each puppy progresses at its own pace. Keep training sessions short, fun, and positive to avoid overwhelming your puppy. End each session on a positive note, even if it means not achieving all the steps in one go.
With time, patience, and repetition, your puppy can overcome its fears and become more confident and resilient when faced with previously scary objects.
