Busy Lives

With lives so busy and plates heaping these days....when are you going to fit in training your dog?

Well, lucky for you, every moment of a dog's life is a training! This means whether you are present or not, your dog is always learning something.

Just like us, dogs thrive on predictable and consistent schedules  So let's make the most our valuable time. Best of all, this doesn't mean you have to be interactively involved with your dog every minute of the day because you have a life too! We just want you to choose when to include your dog and then allow your dog to learn how to be comfortable when left alone.  Now that's training.

So here is the ODH Time Chart we created to help you manage your time with and for your dog.

Use this list to plan out your dog's day.

• Potty
• Mealtime
• Walking
• Place or Tether 
• Crate Time
• Play
• Rest
• Socialization

Here is an Example chart. Matt (my husband) filled it out because he leaves the house to go to work.

No worries now that you have a plan and a schedule to follow. Don't want to stick to it? Well that's ok, your dog is still learning something!

Thanks for being here!

My Best,

Dru
