Week one sets the tone for months to come. Focus on routine, not rules.
Sleep is more important than training. Puppies need 18–20 hours of sleep a day. A quiet, low-traffic corner with their crate is the single best gift you can give them.
Take them out every 2 hours, right after meals and immediately after waking up. Celebrate every outdoor pee like it's a Nobel Prize — it works.
Socialise gently. Different sounds, floor textures and calm humans — not big crowds or strange dogs yet.
Keep training sessions short: 2 minutes, five times a day beats one long session every time.
