If your once-adorable puppy has suddenly started ignoring you, pushing boundaries, or acting like they’ve forgotten everything you taught them welcome to the teenage phase.

In this episode, we dive into the often frustrating, sometimes hilarious world of adolescent dogs. Why do they stop listening? Is it stubbornness, defiance, or something deeper going on in that rapidly developing brain?

We unpack what’s really happening during this stage of growth, why it’s completely normal, and how to navigate it without losing your patience or your connection with your dog. From inconsistent behaviour to sudden bursts of energy and selective hearing, you’ll learn practical strategies to guide your dog through this tricky phase.

Because teenage dogs aren’t trying to be difficult they’re just figuring out who they are. And with the right support, you’ll come out the other side with a stronger bond and a well-adjusted adult dog.
