Free puppy socialization parties
and aggression prevention excercises

Have you seen dogs that are always afraid of their own shadow?

Unless you teach your puppy good manners, the puppy develops bad habits that can be frustrating, and lead to adult problems.

The reasons to do the Gentling (aggression prevention) exercises are:
  1. It establishes that you are bigger and stronger than the pup, but still gentle and non threatening .
  2. Once you are trusted as pack leader, the pup will bond and want to follow you, and your instructions .
  3. Demonstrating gentle leadership significantly reduces inappropriate aggressive behavior later.
  4. During Gentling, nothing bad happens so the pup develops trust in you.
  5. The puppy becomes accustomed to routine examination.

The entire process bonds the puppy to the owner, and helps make the puppy non aggressive and easy to handle.
 
The process gets the puppies to think:
"Mom, Dad, please bring me back here.  This cave has friendly, powerful cookie givers!"

The puppy experiences clear non threatening leadership during the parties.
