From Pup to Punk: Growing Pains in Dogs

From Pup to Punk: Growing Pains in Dogs

Remember that sweet little puppy who used to hang on your every word? Yeah… they’ve been replaced by a moody teenager with selective hearing and way too much energy. Welcome to canine adolescence! In this episode, we’re talking all about the “teen phase” of dog hood—the chaos, the confusion, and the comical moments that come with it. We’ll break down what’s happening in your dog’s brain, why they suddenly act like they’ve forgotten everything, and how to survive it with your sanity (mostly) intact. Spoiler alert: snacks and patience help. A lot.
