During your pup’s critical developmental period, we will expose them to a variety of environments, people, and animals, helping them become comfortable and well-adjusted in different situations. This early socialization contributes to building a confident and adaptable adult dog.
We ensure that your puppy receives a solid foundation in basic obedience commands such as sit, stay, come, place, and leash manners. Having these fundamentals in place before your puppy comes home sets them up for success in their new environment and enables a smoother integration into your household routine.
We know bathroom mishaps are never fun to deal with. Our program institutes a consistent routine and teaches puppies appropriate potty habits. This reduces the chances of accidents and makes the transition to your home environment much easier.
Common behavior issues such as biting, chewing, jumping, and excessive barking are addressed during the training period. Your puppy will learn alternative behaviors and techniques to manage and redirect any undesirable behavior. This helps establish good habits and prevents the development of problematic behaviors in the future.
While your puppy is in training, you won’t be left in the dark. You will be educated on your specific puppy’s behavior, communication, and training style. Every dog is different, so having an individual blueprint will have a tremendous impact on your future relationship. This knowledge transfer ensures that you are equipped with the necessary skills to continue the training process and maintain consistency once your puppy comes home.
Our two month program is comprehensive and long enough that your puppy will have developed good habits, not just occasional positive behaviors. Perhaps more importantly, we will provide you with tailored training advice for your unique pup to help maintain their learned behaviors at home. Plus, all the confidence gained during socialization will have become a part of your pup. They will be ready to tackle the world with you!
While we can’t give you back those two months of time, we do know that a well-trained puppy is more likely to establish a strong bond and build trust with their owner. With a solid training foundation, your puppy will understand expectations and boundaries, leaving more time to enjoy each other, and less time dealing with miscommunications.
By forming a relationship between a responsible breeder and an experienced and trusted dog trainer, your pup is getting the best, scientifically backed training and socialization from day one. Our combined programs ensure every experience your dog has during their critical period of development is tailored to help them grow into well-behaved and well-adjusted dogs.
We also work together to help you choose a dog with the right temperament for your lifestyle and needs. Whether that means a calm lap dog or a pup you can take around town, we will use our combined knowledge of dog psychology and development to walk you through the pros and cons of each pup’s personality considering your individual needs.
