I’m sorry if you explained this and I missed it; there was a lot to unpack when you discussed head collars. I am interested in using one, but if I’d prefer to use it to get into “working-mode” what is the best age to introduce it? Should I introduce it when we are going vested to pet friendly places or should I introduce it closer to when I bring my puppy home? For context, my puppy is a lab, so I’m not too worried about him hating it. (:

You should introduce it really early. Search "headcollar" or "head collar" in the search bar and you'll see me introducing it to John Denver at like 9 weeks or so.

I just listened to this one podcast style in the car. As always, so helpful! As a bonus it's nice to hear that other folks are having similar concerns and struggles with their dogs. Thanks Laura!
