Thanks for watching my video all about canine enrichment! Which game are you going to play with your puppy first?
I am going to start with the busy box because i already have those supplies handy. I will be ordering those other toys you recommended so i can play those other games too.
I guess Im randomly asking but does anyone know of a way to get back into an instagram account?
I stupidly forgot my password. I love any assistance you can give me.
@Xander Benton instablaster =)
@Bennett Darius i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site thru google and Im trying it out now.
I see it takes quite some time so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Bennett Darius it worked and I now got access to my account again. I'm so happy:D
Thank you so much, you really help me out :D
8 weeks old and she's killing me. Good thing she's cute. lol
I don't know why i never thought to try playing games with my puppy when she eats. I can't wait to try all of these fun new games!
Which one did you try first?
I have a 3-month-old cocker spaniel. Correction! It's a shark. SHARK! Bites everything and anything
Hi. I'm getting a cocker spaniel in a few days. How is your puppy doing now?
Hi! My puppy is now 5 months, and he was the same at 3 months. Just kept working on his bite inhibition and by 4 months he knew not to bite as hard or everything. Hang tight!
Mine is just 3 months old, husband’s new lab and he named him Spartacus. I want to call him needles...
I hv a 3 month shitzhu girl....the biting is at its peak... hopefully she ll calm down later
Great tips!
Thank you so much for the helpful tips. Without you, not sure what I would have done without your help.
Definitely trying ball pit and find it frenzy. Trying with my older dogs too.
Our pup is 11 and a half weeks...she has about 2 bouts of "crazy" a day, but she is quite easy to tire out! Can't wait to use some of these games!
Exactly what I was looking for, thank you! My six month old blue heeler mix is LOVING the rolled up t shirts with kibble stuck through the holes of her ball. I feel like I might actually get something done today! 😂
16 weeks! We love the holey roller ball, thanks for the extra ideas!
Thanks for watching! We love it too!
I got a bob a lot a while back, my pup loves it. It took him a bit to understand how to play with it so I smeared peanut butter on the outside. As he licked it, the treats started falling out. After a little while, he started nosing and pawing at it himself so he’s a pro now 😁
Love it! Sometimes we have to teach our dogs how to interact with a toy.
My English Springer Spaniel is 10 weeks old and doing great! I love these enrichment ideas, I bought him the bob-a-lot but my friends dog destroyed it when they visited....such a fun toy though! I may get another one :) ill definitely be trying the bottle one! Thanks for the ideas!
I've watched so many of these "puppy puzzle" type of videos, most of which don't last 5 seconds or teach my dog to play with things they shouldn't.
All of these however look golden!
Thanks for watching! We're so happy you got some great puzzle game ideas from the video. We'd love to see a photo and update of your puppy with these games on our Puppy Training with Michele Lennon Facebook group: howtotrainadreamdog.com/FB-group
Omg thank you I will do this with my 10wk cane corso . I am so excited he will come home in 2 days.
Thank you so much for your help!! My puppy is 2 months old
I got a 8 week old chiwinnie boy! His super cute, energetic and funny! I got him on Sunday. Today is my 3rd day training him with all the help of your videos. Thank you so much! The procedure to train is hard and challenging but I'm not going to give up. I feel like I have a baby. I can only do my chores when he naps. I'm hoping soon he will get better at training and I'll be so proud of us!🤗💪

My puppy Titus is 8 1/2 weeks old. He is a German Shepherd cross, is very sweet and loveable, but is also going through the teething stage, big time! He loves his assortment of toys, but his favorite thing to chew on is our older female BC mix, "Nanny Harley".
Check out our favorite toys for teething puppies! th-cam.com/video/C4PeZUzRMag/w-d-xo.html
Michelle, are these games played at meal times or do you separate a part of their daily food to play these at play time? Thanks for clarifying.
our puppy is 2 weeks old, so we are trying to learn alot to prepare for our aussie doodle in 6 weeks.
11 month Australian Shepherd here!

I have a 18week old staffy mix. Always looking for insight and advice to tire my wild boy out
We hope this helped! We have plenty more videos all throughout our channel!
I'm getting mine in a month and a half sooo I'm starting early
I love this vid so much cos it's very practical and not necessarily needing special toys! Gonna try em with my puppy
Random question pls: how old can d pup start eating solid kibbles?
Glad we could help! Most pups can start to eat solid kibble when they start to ween off their mother's milk. This happens typically at around 3.5 - 4.5 weeks old. For any nutritional advice, please contact your vet.
I just get my first dog in my life two days ago, and he is a 4 month old Corgi
Thank you for the great video! Cant wait to play with our puppy. We will be picking up our Lab puppy in about 3 weeks. He will be 8 weeks old. Can you provide the link to the play pen? For some reason it doesn’t take me to the product on Amazon.
Here you go! www.howtotrainadreamdog.com/puppy_pen_indoor

14 week old Labrador!

I have an approximately 6month old lab mix rescue pup I adopted in February. I don’t think she had any real training except potty training. Been having trouble keeping her from pulling and bitting on the leash. She is spooky around strangers.

What if they decide the towels are the game not the food? My 9 week old loves chewing on fabric
My pup is s 4 month old Labrador, Lucy
Love these games my girl already loves chasing an empty bottle around
Hi Karen and Lucy! Thanks for watching!
5 and 1/2 month old labradoodle and a Labrador retriever
Wouldn't the "Rag Ball" encourage tearing up other clothe items?
Great question! Shredding is a natural canine behavior, we want to offer our dogs an appropriate outlet for this behavior otherwise theymay chose clothes or rugs when you aren't supervising them. This "Rag ball" is a great outlet for those that like to shred.
Are dog is a 1 year and 2 months old, his name is Canelo and he is doing great 😁
My puppy 3 months old
My Goldendoodle is scared of the Bobs A Lot. My schnauzer keeps demonstrating it, but Sugar is still afraid of it. She’s not usually timid or sound sensitive. Can you give me any suggestions? I’ve tried sitting in the floor and gently rolling it for her. Oh..she’s a very rambunctious 7 mo old.
The Bob a Lot can be very noisy so it's not uncommon for your dog to not like it - at least not yet. There are other products that are similar that are much quieter. Check out this video for the ones we love: th-cam.com/video/0deXF9kfAP4/w-d-xo.html
5 months labradoodle
5 month old blue heeler aka land shark
What kind of do is that in the video?
Where did you find the white ball pit enclosure?
It's this white pen! www.howtotrainadreamdog.com/puppy_pen_indoor
I bought #6 boba lot?
The Bob a lot was a fail with my Borador! He opened the top during the first use and destroyed it! :(
WOW that's bananas. Sounds like he needs tougher more challenging puzzle toys. Very few dogs can get that open like that. You have an Einstein on your hands.
Where did you get the white pen , there is no link but you mention
Links can be found in the description of the video. Here is the link to the white indoor pen: www.howtotrainadreamdog.com/puppy_pen_indoor

I tried the Busy Box this am. She ate some of the kibble but then ended up just playing with, chewing on and running away with the rags. Not sure this is a good thing...don't want her chewing on clothing etc...???
It works for some, and others it can become a safety hazard. Always supervise your pup's play to prevent them from ingesting the clothing. Another idea is to let them shred a head of lettuce!
My black lab is 12 weeks old
6 months Golden Doodle
We hope this video was helpful!
Do you have an updated link for the puppy pin?
We are working on updating all of our links in our descriptions. Here is our updated link: www.howtotrainadreamdog.com/puppy_pen_indoor
4 month old Yorkie
I have a 2 month old Siberia husky, no matter how many or types of toys you give him, HE WILL EAT AND BITE ANYTHING THAT SMELLS GOOD
The more toys you have to redirect, the better!
Is there any enrichment I can give my six month old large breed pup while I am gone to work?
You could leave your pup with a frozen Kong, which could help him/her settle down and rest while you are gone. We recommend that you meet his needs for exercise and enrichment before you go to work, so he's ready for a nice snooze while you are gone. This video can give you some other good ideas: th-cam.com/video/Vcl33se8dEA/w-d-xo.html
My great Pyr. Puppy is too lazy for these lol. We tried multiple different wobbles and games, but if she can't eat it right than, she doesn't want it hahaha. she will stare at it and howl
Will this work on an older (3-4 yr old) rescue dog?
Yes! Absolutely! It might take some time to figure out what your dog loves but by paying close attention and trying lots of different games, you'll soon get a sense for his personality.
I am going to bring home a puppy in 2 weeks. Before time time, I have an understanding that I need to exercise the puppy to get his energy out. But a lot of the exercises involve food! Would that not cause the puppy to have a poop at night? What are the exercises that do not involve food?
A lot of the enrichment games involve food, yes, but that is mostly for mental exercise. And you would take the food out of their daily meal portions so that you are not overfeeding. Check out these physical exercises too: th-cam.com/video/0elq2wMF0Sw/w-d-xo.html
Yeah so my dog tries these for about 4 seconds and then bites me to make me get it for him... I try to redirect him to the toy but he literally just keeps biting me.. i can't do the ouch thing or stand up and turn away, doesn't work... can give him a relax time out in his crate but it doesn't make him any more interesting in the game.
This sounds like we need to work on the mechanics of the trianing games... hand palcement, reinforcment level and delivery location. PLUS recognizing when pup is over stimulated or too full of energy. This is something we can help you with inside the Pro-Level of the program we offer. howtotrainadreamdog.com/puppy-perfection-course/
My puppy will be 3 months in 2 days :)
We drive semi truck and I’m his only option. He is 8mo the old is a Doberman mix. Also I don’t think he likes or respects me. I’m mentally slow already and I’m just not knowing what to do. No we don’t have anyone to help. I need to know how to correct him and som mental games because fetch is getting old and tug of war
Hang in there! Here is another great video full of enrichment games to try: th-cam.com/video/Lvz2gRIRKJg/w-d-xo.htmlsi=ONhMCy0_fRWaW7yw
You could also try a decompression walk. This gives your pup a chance to decompress and uses mental AND physical energy. You can learn more about them in this video: th-cam.com/video/mDsxEubfEKQ/w-d-xo.htmlsi=jh5MdpLl_6RsUyq1
