Frequently Asked Questions
How long should a training session be?
5–10 minutes a few times a day is far more effective than one long session.
What command should I teach first?
Name recognition and ‘sit’ — they build focus and reward patterns.
How do I stop unwanted behaviour?
Reward the alternative behaviour and remove the reward for the unwanted one; log it to spot patterns.
Can I track more than one dog?
Yes — create a profile per dog with separate progress.
At what age can I start?
Puppies can learn simple cues from 8 weeks; keep it short and positive.
Is the app free?
Yes — session logging and progress tracking are free, with an optional ad-free Pro upgrade.
