In addition to potty training, naps, and puppy biting solutions, in Puppy Level 1 there is a strong emphasis on early puppy socialization, which simply put is exposure to all the pup will have to navigate throughout life, including different people, sights, sounds, and situations paired with something the pup loves, like treats, to create a positive association with all the encounters. You will learn how to interpret your pup’s body language and how to respond if your puppy appears uncomfortable. There is also a focus on preventative training, taught with games, which help prevent problem puppy behaviors from developing. Behaviors like guarding, not being comfortable being handled (grooming, bathing, having gear put on), or being left alone, to name a few.

Subsequent Levels – Each level offers new skills, goals, and games for you and your puppy and are taken in consecutive order. You come away with a strong understanding of socialization, prevention, and canine enrichment and how to implement these strategies. In addition, you will learn how to teach your puppy foundation skills that we then refine into useful life skills like navigating life out and about in the city, relaxing in the house, front door know-how, kitchen and meal time know-how, and plenty of other fun!
