Smashing/biting/moving boxes

We started training nose-work some time ago but she’s always smashing/eating/moving the boxes on the floor. Today I tried elevating the boxes on a bench but she pushes them with her snout. Also tried taping them on the floor, but she tries eating the tape 😅 I probably just need patience? I don’t really know what to do to stop her from smashing/biting/moving the boxes.
Thank you!!!

Off leash dog park?

I’ve been hearing about a dog park around ocean and 7th, which I’m guessing it’s Christine Emerson Reed Park looking at the map. So is there an actual off leash dog park there? Thank you!! :)

Puppy wants to jump on people - outside 😭

We have a 19-week-old puppy who gets soooo excited when she sees people on walks that she immediately tries to jump on them. It doesn't help that everyone always wants to say “hi!” I've been trying to get her to sit using treats, but she’s way too overstimulated to care, so I just started stepping on the leash. If you've been in a similar situation and successfully moved past it, please tell me what worked for you! 🙏

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!

4.5 month old - overdoing walks?

We go on two about 30 min walks a day. We play and she runs around at home. We also do mental stimulation but my question is about the walking. Am I doing too much? Should we cut the walks shorter? What did you do with your puppies?
Thank you so much! 🤎

Taking puppy out - concerns about parvo

Our puppy is 17 weeks old and getting her final round of vaccines at the end of this week. We will ask the vet when it’s safe for her to walk on the ground. But for now, I would love to know when did you start letting your puppy walk on the ground?
Also, we’ve been taking ours in a carrier and car drives.
