Puppy Training

Our goal has always been to offer a healthy, happy puppy that makes a wonderful pet for your family.

Foundational 4-Week Training Program

$4500 investment
Limited spots available

Your pup will be trained in a home environment with the usual noises that entails. He or she will
receive additional socialization from day one which includes more holding, petting, touching,
snuggling, cuddling, and general human interaction. Pups will be introduced to a variety of
situations, discover toys, and begin their training in earnest after about a day of getting
comfortable.

What Your Puppy Will Learn in Training

EVERY puppy will be trained on these commands and skills:

1. Clicker condititioned and use of the clicker for training. It will also make the transfer of these
puppies once they go home easier because the trainers the new owners will hire won’t have
to do the initial clicker work. They will immediately be able to jump in and begin using the
clicker for their training.
2. Leave it
3. Come to me
4. Sit command
5. Go in your kennel
6. Kennel/crate training – teaching them to be calm and quiet when they go in there.
7. Beginning house and potty training
8. Teaching the ‘go with me’ skill’, teaching them to walk with their owner and stay close when
they are off leash.
9. Beginning leash work
10. Place command. Teaching the puppy to get on a small elevated platform and stay there. It is
essentially teaching the puppies the crate command but without a crate surrounding them.
Makes controlling the puppies much either and allows them to be in more places under
control in the household with the family. .
11. Wait command – teaching them to stand still and wait at the door or whenever told to stand
still.

Above and Beyond Training

During training, puppies will receive:

Their second puppy immunization and rabies shot. Both given at 12-weeks.
A comfort toy is included in the training package as it helps to keep puppy calm and
makes a great sleeping buddy during kennel training.

We give these puppies the best start in life and when you add our training you get an even
better start.

A Note About Service Dogs

We’ve received a lot of requests about training for service dogs and have chosen to focus on basic puppy training for the time being.

Service dog trainers will tell you that over ninety percent of dogs entered into their programs ‘wash out,’ and determining before eight weeks if a puppy might succeed in their program is impossible.

Have you had dogs before, and if yes, have you and your dogs gone through training?

If yes, what kind of training was it? In person, online, obedience classes, something else?

If you’re a first-time dog owner (and/or have young children), we highly recommend training, as it can ensure you and your dog can set boundaries early, giving you both the best start.

How important is it to you to have a trained dog?

In your own words, describe what a trained dog looks like.

Will you be committed to furthering training once the puppy rotates to your home after being in training with us?

What are the top three (3) things you’d most like to be able to do with your dog when he or she is an adult? (Take some time and imagine your puppy as an adult dog. What kind of adventures will you have? Will you be hiking? Boating? Meeting other dogs? Sitting in dog-friendly locations such as restaurants, cafes, shops, etc? Just a few ideas to get you started).

Intensive training is expensive, are you okay with that?
