Are you unknowingly setting your puppy up for failure?

Most new dog owners make the same mistakes, mistakes that can derail progress, create frustration, and damage the bond with their dog. At STSK9, we don’t believe in quick fixes or tool-based “hacks.” We focus on building your skills as a handler, because that’s what actually works.

Here are the 5 warning signs you’re on the wrong track:

  • You are giving your puppy commands to “listen” 
  • You're practicing going on street walks and trying to have the puppy heel with you to avoid pulling 
  • Your puppy is roaming around exploring the house freely
  • You're feeding your puppy from a bowl
  • You're focused on controlling your puppy, not understanding them

If any of these sound familiar, you’re not alone, but you are at risk of failing your puppy’s training.
