Questions about our Puppy Training Assistance Program answered:
Our puppy training assistance program covers various aspects, including house training, leash manners, and fundamental obedience skills.
House training, also known as potty training, is one of the essential skills to teach your new puppy. We emphasize positive reinforcement techniques to encourage desirable bathroom behaviors. Through consistent schedules, frequent potty breaks, and positive reinforcement for successful elimination, we help puppies understand where and when it's appropriate to relieve themselves.
*In our efforts to tailor the training program to your puppy's needs, we'll need to inquire about any established habits or preferences your dog may have. Specifically, we're interested in understanding whether your puppy is accustomed to using a crate and if they have access to the outdoors while you're away. Knowing these details will help us design a training plan that aligns with your puppy's existing routines and promotes a smooth transition into new behaviors.*
Another crucial aspect of puppy training is teaching your furry companion how to walk politely on a leash. We focus on positive reinforcement methods to encourage your puppy to walk beside you calmly without pulling. Through reward-based training and consistent practice, we help foster good leash manners and reinforce the bond between you and your puppy.
In addition to house training and leash manners, our program covers a range of other important dog training techniques. These may include:
Basic obedience commands such as sit, stay, come, and down.
Socialization skills to help your puppy interact positively with other dogs and people.
Management of undesirable behaviors such as chewing, jumping, and excessive barking.
Enrichment activities to keep your puppy mentally stimulated and engaged.
Our experienced trainers tailor our approach to suit your puppy's individual needs and temperament, ensuring a positive and rewarding learning experience for both you and your furry friends.
**Regarding Puppy Training Sessions:**
During the initial stages of puppy training, it's essential to establish a strong foundation for your furry companion's behavioral development.
**To ensure effective training and rapid progress, we recommend more frequent visits during the first few weeks. These sessions allow us to provide personalized guidance, address any challenges promptly, and reinforce positive behaviors consistently. This may include at least one visit per day every day you're out of the home for these first few weeks.This commitment ensures that your puppy receives the focused attention and support necessary to thrive during this crucial developmental phase.**
We look forward to collaborating with you and your puppy to achieve training goals and foster a harmonious relationship built on trust and understanding for your peace of mind and theirs!
