PUPPY DAY TRAINING
Drop your puppy off with us for a full 8 day and let us get them started on basic puppy training! This program is designed for puppies as young as 8 weeks-6 months. Your puppy will work inside in a home environment to learn inside and outside manners in the yard. This is great if you have a puppy that needs to learn how to play properly with other dogs, learn how to not bite so hard during play (which helps with them being bitey with you) and how to safely and properly socialize other dogs.
Socialization with other dogs is one of the most important things you can offer your puppy. Puppies learn A LOT from mature and well-socialized dogs, which is why Lara's little terrier Ewok and Standard Poodle Archie are great training assistants. Ewok typically does not want to play and is great at teaching puppies to disengage and learn dog body language. Archie is playful and teaches puppies how to have mutual, safe and proper play without learning bad habits.

Proper Puppy
This is our puppy board and train where you will leave your puppy with us for 10 days of intensive training. Your puppy must be at least 4 months of age before starting this program. Your puppy will stay with me 5 days straight Mon-Friday. Friday evening I will bring your puppy back to your home and provide puppy education and homework to do over the weekend, which will be your first in home appointment. This will help me work out any kinks you had over the weekend and it is super important to have the time to do the weekend homework to prevent any regression. On Monday morning you will drop your puppy back off at my home and they will stay until Friday and you will have your second in home appointment. Puppy training is not all about teaching them obedience, but the most vital part is socializing them so they can be calm and proper in your daily life! Each day is spent working at your pup's pace and the more they progress the more distractions we can challenge them with.
