 That's a normal thing that dogs do and are trying to teach a batch. That's why it's so important when you're doing thatch training that you have your dog on a leash in the beginning so that they can get away from you.

Obviously she wants to keep the ball. I understand that kiwi on the dog trainer here is for selectively asking to level we need teachers that when you let go of it. I'll give it right back in by having them unleash you're able to kind of work them through that logic.

The most important thing to do first is talk to your vet about your puppies.

Some breeds or types of dogs need extra special consideration when it comes to their exercise limits your vet will be able to do some x-rays so that you can confirm that your dogs growth plates of closed.

But while you're waiting for them to grow up. What kind of exercise can you do with them. A general rule of thumb is five minutes of exercise at a time up to two times per day for every one month of age.

So if your puppy is two months old. They can exercise for 10 minutes at a time up to twice a day. And if your puppy is six months old.

They can exercise for up to 30 minutes at a time, two times per day, then you should avoid long walks a repetitive exercise with puppies.

Puppies are pretty good at staying active in knowing the limits so when your puppy decides to break let them have it.

That said, sometimes puppies can get a little too wild and crazy. Nothing like you, of course, but if you notice that your dog is doing flip somersaults or body slams, then it's probably a good idea to intervene.

Give them a bit of a break and then encourage them to play a little bit later once I calmed down a bit.

Even though you shouldn't take long, sustained walks with your puppy taking them out for walk and letting them explore their own pace is a really fantastic idea.

Time spent exploring and playing in your backyard is awesome.

 But it's also important to get your puppy out and let them experience lots of new exciting environments to you should sprinkle in some short training sessions on simple obedience while in these new places in between walking and playing.

She yes give me nice work she's doing so well on her outdoor training.

Let them rest and always keep an eye in your puppy and prevent them from doing the excessive or high jumping like jumping off of the furniture jumping up for a toy.

So we are playing with the young dog you want to keep your puppy low to the ground so your playing tug with them.

For example, keep that tongue to a load of work you're playing with a ball rolling.

Instead of throwing this is one of my favorite moves to ignite a dog's interest in the tug toy or other toy that real rapid shake see that it's really handy because it keeps them focused on the ground rather than jumping up.

It really seems to make a lot of dogs want the toy even more if you're struggling with getting your dog interested in the tug toy tried to wiggle.

She's biting her leash. Right now I want to discourage that because this is not a proper toy. Let's see if we can get her voluntarily to stop chewing the leash and bite this that was attempting to pull it out of their mouth.

You want to really see if you can get them to organically make the decision to get that little move really competing with something.

It is like not one that you this but you can see she's really thinking about it see that yes I say I see that now had a strong tug now got her attention on the toy in her attention on me.

So this is doing a couple of things.

Not only are we getting her onto the toy but were also showing her that hey you play with me. It's a lot more exciting.
