Puppy School is designed to help you and your dog learn together! While your puppy builds a strong foundation in key skills, such as crate training, grooming desensitization, polite leash walking, socialization and essential obedience commands like come, down, sit, place, and watch, you’ll learn how to guide and reinforce these behaviors at home. This program helps you and your puppy develop confidence, communication and a strong lifelong bond.

Early socialization Early socialization helps puppies grow into confident, well-adjusted dogs. By introducing them to new people, animals and environments in a positive way, they learn to handle the world calmly and comfortably. These early experiences build good behavior, reduce fear, and set the foundation for a happy, resilient adult dog.

Handling Introducing grooming and gentle handling early helps puppies become comfortable with being touched, brushed, and examined. These positive experiences make vet visits, nail trims, baths, and future grooming far less stressful. Teaching puppies to relax during handling builds trust, boosts confidence, and sets them up for a lifetime of calm, cooperative care.
