Life with a puppy is a whirlwind of excitement and exhaustion, and it's normal to feel a little overwhelmed.
Thankfully, there are some wonderful tools out there, designed to help new pet parents raise happy and well-behaved adult dogs.
What is the Zigzag training method?
Zigzag's training method looks at breaking down training into realistic, achievable steps, which develop as your puppy learns about the world around them.
The app recognises that every puppy is different, and as such, each training plan is tailored to their age, breed type and their own specific needs.
The video-based training sessions are always short and engaging, making them perfect for wiggly attention spans!
But it isn't just the training side of the app that has experts so impressed.
From the moment you bring your four-legged friend home, they will enter a critical stage of learning and socialisation, which may shape the way they see the world as an adult dog. Zigzag recognises that puppies need core life skills to thrive, so they've included a number of invaluable life lessons for your pup.
From housetraining, to socialisation, to preparing them for firework night, the app has everything you need to raise a confident, well-adjusted puppy.
Setting your puppy up for success
Designed by a team of dog behaviour experts and backed by leading force-free dog behaviour organisations, Zigzag sets puppies up for success.
But it isn't just the canine half of the partnership they've thought about. The app also offers unlimited 24/7 chat support with a dedicated puppy coach, who is there to help reassure owners whenever they need some extra guidance.
Zigzag also puts you in touch with a community of fellow owners, so you can share stories with other pet parents who are on the same journey.
