Puppy Training

How to Train Your Young Puppy

Your puppy’s early weeks are the most formative time of their life ….. their magical “Wonder Weeks.” During these precious weeks, their personality and lifelong habits begin to take shape. Imagine your puppy’s curious eyes looking up at you, ready to learn and trust your every move. You have the golden opportunity to guide your young puppy into becoming the “Dog of Your Dreams.”

With puppy training, that dream dog becomes a joyful reality. Early training lays the foundation skills while preventing future issues like dog anxiety or aggression. Picture replacing chewed shoes and sleepless nights with calm snuggles and a pup who listens to your every word.

Our Wonder Weeks Puppy program is a specialized board and train (B&T) program for puppies under 6 months. The Greatest Dog in the World program is an ideal program that covers all stages of puppy’s development, from wee pup to adult dog. Each of our training programs are tailored to puppy’s growth stage and learning abilities.

Puppy Training Basics

Puppy training begins as early as 8-weeks-old. House training includes puppy crate training and puppy potty training, which are two essential skills to develop harmony at home.

Crate training not only speeds up potty training, but it also helps your pup (and you) sleep through the night. A calm puppy curled up peacefully in their crate is more than adorable. Crate training is a proven way to prevent future dog anxiety.

We address puppy biting, barking, jumping and other unwanted behaviors. We transform your chaotic home life into calm serenity. Extensive holding, handling and petting allows you to tame your wild child puppy.

Foundation obedience skills include focus, come when called, beginning self-control and puppy leash walking. These foundation skills are taught through positive, engaging puppy training methods. A puppy’s first LOOK of eye contact isn’t just cute; it’s the spark of true focus and connection. COME becomes more than an obedience skill; it’s a life-saving response to stress. Beginning self-control means your puppy learns how to rest calmly, instead of bouncing off the walls. Puppy leash skills are the foundation of dog leash training.

Because of our limited weekly enrollment, every puppy receives extensive individualized attention, ensuring faster progress and lasting results.

Puppy Socialization

Early puppy socialization, before 6 months of age, is absolutely crucial for proper puppy development. Without it, puppies may grow into fearful, anxious and/or aggressive dogs. Through friendly puppy socialization and play, we help prevent these negative issues before they begin.

Our training environment is 100% residential with no kennel runs or outside cages. Instead, puppies live in a comfortable home with a professional dog trainer and a group of friendly, well-trained dogs. Puppies experience immersive, round-the-clock training, like summer camp for kids, full of play, structure and life lessons.

Puppy socialization and play fosters the natural “monkey see, monkey do” learning process. Imagine your pup watching a calm, confident dog sit politely. And then, your puppy mimics that same behavior on their own. It’s the fastest, most natural way for dogs (and humans) to learn. In the case of dogs, it’s dogs training puppies and dogs.

Next Steps …

After completing Wonder Weeks Puppy training, your pup is ready to continue their journey into adulthood. Beyond 6 months, training includes leash training. This includes loose leash walking in public areas with increased distractions. Leash pulling and leash reactivity are addressed. Once dogs develop great leash skills, off-leash reliability is easier to develop.

Training starts with that tiny ball of fur learning to sleep through the night and potty outside. Soon, puppy develops into the confident dog walking calmly by your side. Every training step builds toward the lifelong joy of living with the dog of your dreams.
