O que muda mês a mês

A fase de filhote não é um único estágio. É uma pilha de problemas e vitórias diferentes. Use isto como uma linha do tempo, não como um manual rígido.

1. Fase 1
   8 to 12 weeks: land with a job description

   Routine, gentle handling, legal outlets for drive.

   • Crate and potty rhythm.
   • Redirect heel nipping to toys every time; never wrestle it into a game.
   • Feet, ears, mouth handling with food.
   • Socialization at distances; no forced greetings.
   • Start markers and name games indoors.
2. Fase 2
   3 to 6 months: coordination + opinions

   Leash skills before adult strength arrives.

   • Reward loose leash; stop forward motion on pulls.
   • Wait at doors; impulse games.
   • Flirt pole or tug with rules on soft grass when appropriate.
   • Continue stable-dog greetings only.
   • Limit repetitive high jumps on hard surfaces.
3. Fase 3
   6 to 18 months: adolescent heeler

   Mental work is non-negotiable.

   • Daily scent work, obedience chains, food puzzles.
   • Recall on long line; bikes and joggers are magnets.
   • Watch weight as growth slows.
   • Early help if reactivity or guarding appears.
   • Herding-style outlets only with qualified guidance and vet-appropriate exercise.
4. Fase 4
   18 to 24 months: young adult

   Strength and habits mature.

   • Exercise ramps per vet guidance.
   • Keep measuring meals.
   • Continue training for life; idle heelers invent chaos.
   • Discuss prevention topics your vet recommends.
