This episode of Dog Works Radio breaks down the moment every Christmas puppy owner eventually hits: the shift from adorable holiday calm to barking, chewing, biting, and chaos. Michele Forto explains why this happens, how normal it really is, and why so many families feel blindsided in January.
You'll learn what behaviors signal normal development, why the holiday "puppy bubble" creates false expectations, and how structured training can turn things around fast. If you brought home a Christmas puppy and things feel overwhelming, this episode gives you clarity, guidance, and your next steps.
