Ah, the teenage years. They’re not easy for humans (or their parents) and the same goes for dogs, too.

While it can differ from breed to breed, dogs tend to enter adolescence when they’re between six and 12 months old, and it can last until they’re between 18 and 24 months old. It can be a difficult time, and it might feel as though that once obedient, eager-to-please puppy has turned into a totally different dog.
