New Puppy
Program

A series of 8 private lessons covering everything you need to know to set your new puppy up for a happy, healthy life — built around your family's goals.

– ABOUT THIS PROGRAM

This program is a series of 8 private lessons covering everything you need to know about setting your puppy up for success. Whether you’re a first time dog owner or have raised puppies before, every dog is unique – and these lessons will teach you how to build the strongest foundation you can for your new pup.

Each lesson will be covering 1-2 different topics specifically designed for your household & lifestyle you want to achieve with your pup.

During our first session, I’ll learn about your family’s goals and needs. From there, part of my job is keeping everyone on the same page so your puppy never feels confused or frustrated during this crucial time in their life.

The first two weeks we will meet twice a week in your home. Your puppy will be spending the majority of their time there, so it’s essential to make sure they do not develop any bad behaviors there that will extend to outside the home. From there, we work our way into the real world, giving your pup safe & proper exposure to environments, people, and other dogs so they develop the confidence to go anywhere with you.

After every session, I’ll send you a written recap to reference throughout the week. Consistency between lessons is everything – these writeups help make sure every member of the household stays on the same page.

By the end of our 8 sessions, your family will have a complete understanding of all the basics needed to raise a happy, well-adjusted dog. I highly recommend joining one of my group classes or other programs to learn new skills & continue their training journey.
