  1. Labrador Puppy Training: The First Month at Home Bringing a Labrador puppy home is an exciting experience, but the first month is crucial for building a foundation of good behavior and trust. At Labrador and Labradoodle Puppies Chicago, we believe early training sets the stage for a lifetime of companionship, obedience, and happiness. In the first few days, focus on helping your puppy feel safe and settled. Create a cozy space with a crate or bed, and introduce a routine that includes feeding, potty breaks, and naps. Consistency is key—Labradors thrive on structure and positive reinforcement.

  2. Start house training immediately by taking your puppy outside frequently, especially after eating or waking up. Praise and reward them when they go in the right spot. Accidents may happen, but patience and gentle correction go a long way. Socialization is also a major part of the first month. Introduce your Labrador to different people, sounds, and environments in a controlled manner. These experiences help build confidence and reduce anxiety later in life. Basic commands like "sit," "stay," and "come" can be taught using treats and praise. Keep training sessions short and fun—Labradors are intelligent and eager to please, but they also have short attention spans as puppies.

  3. Chewing is natural during teething, so provide appropriate toys to protect your shoes and furniture. Redirect chewing behavior without punishment to encourage learning. Remember, your Labrador puppy is building trust with you during this first month. Show them love, patience, and consistency, and they’ll reward you with loyalty and joy. At Chicago Area Labs, we’re committed to helping new puppy parents thrive. Explore our site for tips, training guides, and available Labrador puppies ready to become your next best friend.
