Consistent Routine Makes a Puppy Peaceful

June 24, 2025 Michelle Johns

Raising a puppy is both fun and exhausting. If you desire to have more fun and less exhaustion, follow a consistent routine of potty time, play, food, potty time and crate or playpen time resting and sleeping. In the beginning, it’s going to feel like a whole lot of work because when puppy is awake, you are 100% engaged. When puppy is resting or sleeping in her crate or playpen, that is the time that you have to yourself. If you follow this routine, the time that puppy spends in her crate or playpen resting or sleeping will become longer and your breaks will become more meaningful, restful and productive. As a bonus, potty training is a breeze if this routine is followed, and fewer issues like reactivity and excessive barking will arise. So, find your peace by creating a consistent routine for your new bundle of energy.
