About this listen
Does your puppy forget you exist the moment another dog, person, or noise shows up? You’re not alone — and you’re not failing.
In this episode, we break down why puppies struggle with focus in distracting environments and how to build attention step by step — without frustration or force.
You’ll learn why focus is a muscle, how to strengthen it through simple engagement games, and how to teach your puppy to choose you even when the world feels exciting. From name recognition under distraction to practical focus-building games you can use at home and on the go, this episode gives you clear, compassionate tools to help your puppy succeed.
Perfect for puppy parents struggling with attention around people, dogs, and everyday noises — and anyone who wants a calmer, more connected relationship with their dog.
🎙️ Tune in and start building focus, one rep at a time.
