A day in the life with 10 Golden retriever puppies (puppy culture)

This is a topical day in the life for 10 almost 8 week old golden retriever puppies. I raise my puppies using my own twist of the puppy culture methods. Puppies start their day with a potty break followed by breakfast in the form of a manding/learn your name lesson. I like to wear different masks and hats to help desensitize puppies to what they may encounter in their new homes. After breakfast puppies take a nap while I clean up their night area. After setting up their object of the day puppies have a good long play session. This session usually involves their object of the day, exposure to the sweeper, a different environment and often other playmates. Tired from their play session puppies go in individual kennels for a nap. On this particular day I used puppy quiet time to prepare my puppy go home bags and finish up some paperwork. When puppies Wake from their nap they go outside for a potty break and then it’s lunch time. I usually use lunch as a training lesson, today’s less
