Puppies are always learning. Their first experiences with new stimuli shape how they will respond to those stimuli later on in life. By exposing puppies to new stimuli, such as surfaces, in a way that is both fun and rewarding, you can set them up to explore the world confidently.

In this video, puppies are learning to explore uneven surfaces. As you will see, the puppies are given a choice about interacting with the new surface, as well as plenty of treats to make the interaction positive—every step of the way!
