Puppy Headstart


Day training for your puppy! 
We provide a complete training program for your new puppy (age 8 weeks to 5 months). In our puppy headstart program we teach basic manners, positive socialization skills, impulse control, and attention and focus exercises. Our experienced staff will spend the day working with your puppy encouraging calm, polite behaviors which will help prevent unwanted traits from developing. 
What does a day of Puppy Head Start include?
  • ​Playtime & Socialization - Your puppy will have an opportunity to play with other puppies as well as suitable adult dogs in our program.
  • Assessment, management and prevention of undesirable behaviors
  • Enrichment games and confidence challenges
  • Crate and house training​
  • Meal/snack breaks as needed.
  • Frequent, short training sessions. We focus on basics which may include sit, settle, name recognition, intro to targeting, loose leash walking, body handling, self-control exercises around food and toys, and appropriate meet and greet manners.
  • Nap time - Because puppies need some down time!
