Puppy biting and chewing can drive puppy parents wild.

Here we discuss a solution to cease the problem Stop Puppy Biting

Following the Puppy Diary update written by new Schnoodle puppy owner Ian, I caught up with Ian on a course he was running in London last week.

Following the feature I did on the Schnoodle puppies born locally to me, I introduced the  blog post to a professional trainer I had met.
