Make it a happy place: Add chews or a lick mat to build positive feelings.

Use it before your puppy gets overtired: Move your puppy here at the first signs of overstimulation.

Aim for calm → then sleep: Most puppies will naturally drift into a nap after a few minutes of calm chewing or licking.

Keep transitions smooth: Let your puppy come out when they wake up relaxed.

Title: “Your Next Move.”
Text reads:

Observe your dog’s choices — what do they seek, avoid, or repeat?

Identify one unmet need (movement, rest, social time, chewing, exploring).

Add or adjust enrichment to meet that need.

Notice behavior changes — calmer? more focused? more playful?

Remember: meeting needs builds trust and motivation.
