Puppy Training
8 to 12 Weeks
Our Puppy Training Program is designed to support you and your puppy through the most important developmental stage — 8 to 12 weeks of age. This program includes weekly training goals, socialization checklists, behavior milestones, and daily care routines to help build confidence, focus, and good manners from the very beginning. You’ll get clear, step-by-step tasks covering toilet training, crate training, biting and chewing, recall, early leash introduction, and more — all designed to set your puppy up for long-term success and help you stay on track every step of the way.
12 to 16 Weeks
Our 12 to 16 Week Puppy Training Program is all about building confidence, self-control, and real-world manners during your puppy’s early development. At this age, puppies start testing boundaries — so we focus on fun, reward-based training that teaches them to listen, settle down, and make good choices. Each week, you’ll work on key life skills like coming when called, walking politely on leash, staying calm around other dogs and people, and learning cues like “leave it” and “drop it.” You’ll also continue socializing your puppy in new environments while building stronger communication and trust. This easy-to-follow program helps you prevent future behavior problems while raising a happy, well-adjusted dog who enjoys learning.
Novice
Our 4 to 9 Month Puppy Training Program is the perfect starting point for puppies entering their energetic and curious “teenage” phase — whether or not they’ve had prior training. This program focuses on teaching real-life manners, listening skills, and impulse control using clear, positive, reward-based techniques. You’ll learn how to handle common challenges like jumping, pulling on leash, barking, and ignoring cues, while teaching your pup to come when called, settle calmly, walk politely, and respond to you even with distractions around. It’s also a key time for continued socialization, building focus, and strengthening your bond. Whether you’re starting fresh or picking up where someone else left off, this program gives your puppy the structure and guidance they need to become a well-behaved young dog.
Intermediate
Our 9 Months & Older Training Program is built for dogs entering adolescence and young adulthood — a stage where habits are forming, independence is growing, and new challenges often appear. Whether you’re starting training for the first time or revisiting the basics, this program focuses on building reliable obedience, calm behavior, and confidence in real-world settings. Using clear, kind, and effective methods, you’ll work on leash manners, recall, calm greetings, impulse control, focus around distractions, and more. We also address common behavioral issues at this age, like pulling, barking, reactivity, or not listening when it matters most. This program meets your dog where they are — helping you reset, reinforce, and move forward with a solid foundation and better communication.
Scent Detection
Dogs have an incredible sense of smell, and Nose Work leverages this natural talent. This activity involves dogs searching for specific scents—Birch, Anise, and Clove—across various environments such as containers, indoors, and outdoors, including on vehicles. All dogs are welcome to participate, including any age, breed, or those with physical limitations such as blindness, deafness, or mobility issues. It’s also suitable for dogs that may be reactive towards other dogs. Nose Work is a wonderful way to strengthen the bond between dogs and their owners. It boosts dogs’ confidence, helps manage some behavioral issues, and provides both mental and physical stimulation. Above all, dogs thrive on using their noses, doing what they naturally excel at.
