Your puppy didn't forget everything you taught them. They became a teenager.

My Ultimate Guide to Puppy Adolescence shows you how to navigate the teenage phase—so you can understand what your growing puppy needs now + help them learn to actually calm down and settle.

INSIDE THE GUIDE

What’s actually inside this thing?

The stuff that suddenly gets harder when your puppy becomes a teenager? Yeah . . . we're gonna get into all of that.
ADOLESCENCE 101

Know What To Expect

Your puppy isn't broken. Understand what's changing during adolescence, why independence and boundary-testing ramp up + what realistic expectations actually look like.
STRUCTURE + BOUNDARIES

Don't Hand Over the House Keys Yet

They look more grown-up. Their impulse control hasn't caught up. Learn how to increase freedom intentionally, keep useful boundaries in place + use crates, gates and management to prevent old problems from becoming new habits.
SLEEP + ROUTINE

Yep . . . They Still Need Naps.

Bigger puppy does not equal adult dog. Adolescent puppies still need substantial sleep + structured downtime. Learn how to maintain a realistic routine, recognize overtired behavior + stop trading all that helpful puppy structure for freedom too soon.
REAL-LIFE ROUTINES

What Do We Actually Do All Day Now?

Your growing puppy needs more—but they don't need you entertaining them all day. Get realistic daily schedules for stay-at-home and work-outside-the-home families, balancing activity, training, enrichment, downtime + naps around an actual human life.
EXERCISE + ENRICHMENT

You Can't Run the Crazy Out of Them

More energy doesn't always mean they need more exercise. Learn how to balance age-appropriate physical activity, brain work + lower-arousal enrichment without accidentally creating an exhausted, overstimulated teenager who still can't settle. The guide specifically warns that adolescence is when owners often start overdoing exercise.
CALM + RELAXATION

Teach Them How to Actually Chill

Some puppies don't magically learn how to settle just because they're getting older. Get a step-by-step relaxation + matwork plan that teaches your puppy how to go from constantly pestering you to choosing the mat, lying down, relaxing + eventually settling around everyday distractions.
FEAR PERIODS

Why Is My Puppy Suddenly Afraid of that?!

The trash can was fine yesterday. Today it's apparently trying to murder them. Understand the adolescent fear period, what it can look like + how to respond when your previously confident puppy suddenly freezes, avoids something or becomes afraid of people, dogs or objects they used to handle just fine.
REACTIVITY + BIG FEELINGS

When Your Teenager Gets Angsty

Barking, lunging or suddenly feeling unsure of the world can show up during adolescence. Learn how to create space, pair triggers with high-value rewards, use reward-based counter-conditioning + recognize when your puppy needs more professional behavior support.
STILL BITING?

The Teeth Shouldn't Still Be Running the House

After 6 months, obnoxious biting is often less about teething + more about over-arousal. Learn what may be driving it, what responses can actually make it worse + when the answer is structure, downtime and a nap.

AFTER GETTING MY GUIDE...

This guide is a game changer! It is organized and has so much important information that really works! Stacey, I feel like you’re right here with me helping me train this puppy. Your hot tips have really gotten me through this first month. I’ve watched all your videos which have been incredibly helpful but after getting this downloaded guide, I have been able to refer to it many times during the day to make sure I’m staying on track-I could hear your voice as I’m reading it. Thank you for your straight forward easy to follow guide. I highly recommend this to any new puppy owners!!
The guide offers a lot of very practical information. Found the daytime scheduling ideas very helpful. Also, Stacy's videos on social media are also helpful - and funny! Reasonable price for a lot of great puppy information! Hadn't had a 8-week old puppy in many, many years - I definitely needed a refresher!
Stacy and her guide have been such a blessing to us! We needed help with our new puppy and we feel so much better prepared to handle her behavior and how we respond to it. Thanks again for your help!
My pup is still only 3 months old so I havent gotten to use the adolescent guide but after having the puppy survival guide for just a few days I feel so much more knowledgeable and prepared to raise him. My favorite part is the sample schedules for those of us with full time jobs!
I’m not new to dog training but I am new to very young puppies and the money spent was well invested. Not just the information but everything about Stacy and her energy behind the info is everything I needed to feel supported and talk me down from the ledge. Her guides and reels provided everything and assure me I was on the right track. From a sample schedule and what to expect chart it’s all there and provided a sigh of relief when I wondered if I was doing enough, if my pup was sleeping enough and HOW to know. You can tell this is her passion!
This document has been a lifesaver and my pup Sunny is on a schedule, sleeping so well and learning new things every day! I am so glad I found you!
There is a lot of great advice for new puppy owners. It's been 14 years since I have had a puppy so it's all new to me. I refer to the book and gain confidence that I'm doing some things well. I will keep referring to the info to help me achieve having a calm, happy puppy!
Easy program to follow. Just do as it says and see the rewards Great illustration & everything covered. Highly recommend.
