New Puppy Integration
YAY… Puppies are lots of fun! From their smell to their loose skin and even hiccups!
Setting your new family member up for success is so very important and helps establish healthy boundaries. You can start to feel overwhelmed quickly with house breaking and basic obedience training. Timing and consistency are key for successful puppy training. I help work with owners and their new puppies one on one to understand how to handle your new puppy and why it’s so important teach proper behavior, socialization, and much much more.
Different from traditional puppy classes, my puppy training is tailored more towards the individual, the dog and the pups current age. We focus on creating and establishing a healthy owner-puppy relationship. It’s important to build a strong foundation of obedience. Basic obedience includes sit, down, stay, heel and an introduction to the process of learning recall/come, along with overall manners (no jumping, no biting etc). Beginning the training process early establishes good habits eliminating potential future challenges. I also take as much time as needed to teach you proper dog handling, dog behavior and other general knowledge about your puppy. And yes, I cover puppy nipping, jumping and potty training. Potty training is easily the most common behavior problem that can be prevented with diligent supervision and a consistent walking, water, and food schedule. If you find yourself having trouble with this stage in your dog’s development, there are tools available to help make the process a little easier.
New Puppy Training
Each puppy has a different personality and is at various stages in training, so a one size fits all approach to puppy training classes is not effective. I will work one on one with you and your puppy to establish a good foundation to enforce basic obedience skills.
Please give me a call for pricing information. Since I offer so many tools and various options, it’s better to discuss exactly what is needed to insure we cover a well balance approach to you & your puppy’s training needs.
Puppy integration is the most exciting time you will spend with your puppy. DON’T BE SCARED - this is so much fun and I am so honored to help.
In addition, I also touch upon proper diet and nutrition to holistically cover the wellness of your new family member.
