About this listen
Bringing home a new puppy? 🐶 The first few days can feel exciting, overwhelming, and a little exhausting — all at once. In this episode, Amy walks you through exactly what to focus on (and what not to stress about) during those critical early days.
You’ll learn how to:
- Build trust and create a strong bond from Day One
- Set up a potty routine that prevents accidents before they happen
- Introduce the crate in a way that builds confidence — not fear
- Avoid common first-week mistakes that slow progress
- Create structure that helps your puppy feel safe and secure
Amy shares simple, practical tips you can implement immediately — including hand-feeding for connection, the 5-minute potty rule, and the 10-second crate-building method.
If you want calmer days, fewer accidents, and a puppy who sees you as their safe place, this episode is your step-by-step starter guide.
Whether you're on Day One or Week One, this is the foundation that sets everything else up for success.
Hit play and start strong. 🐾
