Puppy Training and socialization

 

Puppies are undeniably cute, but all that youthful energy can be a bit of work! Proper training and socialization is key to helping them grow into well-behaved adult dogs. It’ll save both you and your pup plenty of hassle further down the line – so why not take some time now for a few obedience sessions?

Why train your puppy with us?

When you welcome a new pup into your home, the first few months are essential! This is when they learn how to be well-mannered dogs. Teach them basic obedience and socialization skills – it’s not as hard as it looks (and can even be fun!) During this time we (and you’ll) teach basic obedience like walking on leash and good manners in the home; plus socialize them for healthy interactions later! We work closely with you and your pup throughout our courses so that we can ensure these foundations are securely set in place – putting them on track for an enjoyable life ahead!

For a new dog, the first few months are crucial when it comes to teaching the key elements of good future behavior: basic obedience, good manners, and socialization. If not done right early on, habits like jumping up when greeting or chewing favorite toys may become major challenges down the road – no one wants that! With our guidance as expert dog trainers, these important foundations will be established correctly – setting them up for success now and long into the future.

Some common bad behavior issues we see include:

  • Biting / Nipping: Puppies are just like babies, (only furrier!) They explore their world by tucking anything and everything into tiny mouths – which is adorable when they’re young. But if you don’t train them properly, that same habit can turn into a real problem as your pup grows up. Before you know it, those mischievous teeth will be chomping away at slippers and furniture around the house!
  • Jumping: Coming home to your puppy beaming with joy and affection is one of the best feelings in the world – until it grows up! Jumping can get a bit daunting, especially for non-dog owners or young children. It’s important to train our furry friends not to jump too much as they age, so that everyone stays safe and happy.
  • Potty training: Getting the potty training process right for your precious puppy is key! With a bit of dedication and patience, you can learn how to teach them this important skill. Plus, avoiding any house-training missteps will ensure that they stay in their forever home with you – so don’t give up even when it feels like work!
  • Whining / Crying: Though it’s natural for puppies to become a bit distressed when they’re feeling hungry, thirsty or alone, left unchecked this could lead to some serious issues down the line. Especially if your pup is suffering from separation anxiety – an all-too-common problem stemming from early experiences in life.
