Instead of scolding your pup, I teach you how to manage their environment and provide the right chew outlets, so you can protect your furniture while helping them through this phase. Raising a puppy is less about obedience drills and more about building a shared language. My workshops move away from the traditional command-based approach. We focus on 'life skills'—the everyday habits that actually matter when you are living with a dog. ### What we cover We dive into the realities of the first few months. You will learn how to set up a sustainable schedule, manage potty training, and introduce crate training so your dog views their space as a sanctuary, not a cage. We also tackle common hurdles like: * **Teething and mouthing:** Managing your puppy's need to chew safely. * **Impulse control:** Teaching patience before food or walks. * **Enrichment:** Keeping your pup mentally stimulated using simple household items. * **Feeding routines:** Establishing healthy eating habits from day one. ### The online advantage All my sessions happen via Google Meet, which means your puppy stays in their own safe, comfortable environment. You do not have to worry about travel stress or external distractions. During these live workshops, we don't just lecture. We break down body language, answer your specific questions in real-time, and make sure you feel confident in the techniques before you sign off. Whether you are dealing with a land shark who thinks your hands are toys or a nervous pup who is struggling with new sounds, these workshops give you a roadmap. My goal is to help you enjoy the puppy phase rather than just surviving it. ## About Shivani Kuthe I used to be afraid of dogs, but rescuing my cat Fai changed my perspective entirely. Now, I help pet parents find that same connection through empathy and understanding, not just commands. I am here to make raising a puppy a little less overwhelming for you.
