Puppy Training
For puppies under 6 months of age
Would you like to breeze past some of the most challenging parts of raising a puppy? Getting your puppy trained and socialized early on means avoiding common problems like pulling on leash, jumping up, running away, nipping, fear and aggression. Think of it this way; you want a puppy that's friendly, gentle, pleasant to walk and fun to show off to family and friends - everything that a puppy SHOULD be.
Everything your puppy experiences during their first few months shapes their personality and behaviour as they grow. So it only makes sense to expose them to situations that will leave a positive impression on them. Not only that, but obedience training learned early on ensures that good behaviour is part of your puppy's development, preventing bad habits from forming. Choose from our private Coaching or Day Training programs. With Coaching, we'll guide you through the process of socializing, handling/gentling, confidence building and obedience training your puppy. If you choose Day Training, we'll do the work for you and then show you how to continue and maintain your pup's socialization and training. Each program includes field trips to new places, body handling/gentling and obedience training. Obedience skills covered: Sit, Down, Place, Stay, Leave it, Come and Let's Go (leash manners) |

From there, we formulate a plan with your circumstances in mind, and create a training program that will get you the results you need. $40 Puppy Training We'll address any puppy troubles you are facing, such as nipping/biting, house training, chewing, jumping up and barking.

Puppy Kindergarten (for puppies 8-20 weeks old) ON HOLDRaising a puppy is immensely rewarding, but it can also be a frustrating challenge at times. Puppy kindergarten classes are essential to raising a well-adjusted, happily obedient companion that is easy and enjoyable to live with. Our classes are designed for socialization and training that will prevent unwanted behaviours and nervous, aggressive tendencies that can crop up without these early lessons. Socializing puppies before 16 weeks of age (preferrably before 12 weeks!) is an urgent matter and it can't wait - everything a puppy experiences at this age will have a permanent impact on its adult temperament. Don't delay, register for our next round of classes, and get out there to socialize your puppy!
Sessions run 1 hour per week consecutively for 6 weeks. Pups in attendance must be up to date on their vaccinations according to their age. Call us to register! (778-549-2688) |
