Understanding the Labrador Mindset
Labradors are driven by food, play, and approval — in that order. This makes them highly trainable but also prone to counter-surfing, stealing socks, and jumping on guests. Redirect their energy into structured training sessions. Puppry's AI creates a daily plan that channels your Lab's enthusiasm into positive behaviors.
Potty Training a Labrador Puppy
Labrador puppies have small bladders and big appetites. Take them out every 60–90 minutes during the day, and always after eating or drinking. Watch for circling or sniffing — that's your cue. Puppry tracks your puppy's bathroom schedule and learns their patterns, sending you proactive alerts.
Curbing Labrador Mouthing & Chewing
Labrador puppies explore everything with their mouths. Provide plenty of safe chew toys and rotate them to keep interest high. When your Lab mouths you, freeze and ignore them for 10 seconds — they learn that mouthing ends playtime. Puppry's bite inhibition module guides you through this exact protocol.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are Labradors easy to potty train?

When do Labradors calm down?
Labradors typically begin to calm down around 2–3 years old. Consistent training and mental stimulation during puppyhood is essential. Puppry provides enrichment exercises to tire out your Lab mentally, not just physically.
