Play is not just entertainment for puppies. It is a crucial part of their growth, learning, and emotional wellbeing. The Power of Play is a thoughtfully crafted companion guide that explores how purposeful, structured play can shape your puppy’s behaviour, build confidence, and strengthen the bond between you and your dog.
This guide dives into the science and soul of play, showing you how it supports social development, encourages problem-solving, and helps puppies navigate the world with resilience and joy. You’ll learn how play functions as a powerful form of communication, how it promotes both mental and physical health, and how to use it as a positive, reward-based tool in everyday training.
Whether you are introducing a new puppy to your home or looking to bring fresh energy to your training routine, this guide offers practical, easy-to-apply strategies. From interpreting play signals to designing age-appropriate games like Scatty Bananas, you’ll discover how play can reduce stress, prevent unwanted behaviours, and create shared moments that matter.
The Power of Play is ideal for dog owners, trainers, and anyone invested in building a strong, trust-based relationship with their dog through fun, connection, and clear communication. This is more than a training guide. It is an invitation to see play as a lifelong tool for enrichment, learning, and love.
