Pets at Home Puppy Podcast

Editor of My VIP magazine, Kate Cornish, puts anxious puppy owners’ questions to the brilliant dog behaviourist and trainer Claire North, who dishes out a plethora of perfect puppy advice.

We reached out to our puppy-owning customers, members of the Pets at Home Puppy and Kitten Club and our Facebook group, The Wagging Tail, to ask them what type of questions they’d like answering when it comes to their little bundles of fluff, along with any other reassurance and guidance they’d like us to cover. And this podcast episode is the result.

Why does my puppy bark at the postman?’ Why doesn’t my puppy like being patted on the head? What the heck are zoomies? Don’t worry, we have the answers and all the expert advice you need, to make your journey with your puppy a smooth and happy ride.
