It’s already going badly. That is not the end of the story.
The Reset chapter is Chapter 13 of Before You Say Yes to the Dog. Free, in full. Enter an email and it opens on this page.
What to do when the puppy is already home and the week has gone wrong: why a bad week is not a bad dog, why “try harder” is the wrong instruction, and how to change the system instead of the effort.
One honest warning inside it: if the real answer was “Not for us,” or “Maybe later,” a reset won’t fix that. The chapter says so plainly.
