Easy Way to Train Puppy the Kennel Command

 

Meet Rosie, the 10 week old black Lab puppy. While puppy sitting for a friend, I thought we'd work on some basics. Because young puppies can act so spastic, it might seem like there is no opportunity to train. But don't let that puppy energy fool you. They have sponges for brains and are learning all the time. Because the kennel is a big part of a puppy's early routine, learning the kennel command with lots of positive reinforcement can help form the pup's long term views of this safe space. Let's see how Rosie does in real time learning the "Kennel" command.
