Puppy Fundamentals

Your young dog is eager to take in the world around them and needs your guidance as they face new challenges every day.  The goal of puppy and adolescent training is to provide you and your dog with a variety of tools to handle every day situations, so you can create a lifelong companionship.  This class is suitable for dogs up to approximately 24 months of age.

Puppy and adolescent training consists of 6 private lessons to give you and your puppy a solid basic education with a focus on:

• Relaxation
• Improving your dog's confidence in new situations
• Promoting desired behaviors through reinforcement
• Improving your own ability to read your dog's body language
• ...and much more!

Each lesson includes written feedback as well as handouts and guidelines to help you practice on your own. You can find an example lesson plan below.
