Routines that are consistent and include appropriate ways to both drain physical & mental energy, and which meet the dog's innate or genetic needs can often move housetraining along more quickly, prevent puppy biting and many other mischievous behaviors. Having a well established routine can help while raising puppy, and provide structure throughout the challenges presented in adolescence, as well. Routines can reduce anxiety, build confidence & resilience, improve training, and reduce frustration for both puppy & guardians.
