I have found some dogs like the snoot loop better.
- Plenty of small easy to eat treats
- Your puppy's favourite toy
- A crate wire or Vari - I will have some crates available for you to
use if you cannot bring your own. Crates will be used for crate games and it is a great way to get your puppies comfortable in their crates in another environment.
