FAQs

  • The Puppy Starter Program is designed for puppies under 6 months of age. This covers the most critical development window (the first 24 weeks) and supports you through the early months before your puppy is ready for structured group classes.

  • Yes! If your puppy is still under 6 months, this program can help you catch up on foundational training, troubleshoot challenges, and prepare for the transition into group classes. If your puppy is over 6 months, we recommend one of our other training programs better suited for older puppies and adolescents.

  • Perfect timing! Your first session can be scheduled before or within the first week of your puppy arriving home. That way, you’ll be fully prepared and confident before bringing your new family member home.

  • The first session can be done via Zoom, FaceTime or in-person. The following two sessions are typically hands-on to give you real-time coaching with your puppy.

  • Private sessions are scheduled individually at $150 each. The Puppy Starter Program bundles 3 sessions into a step-by-step curriculum for $300 total (a $150 savings). It’s designed to guide you through the puppy stage in order, rather than handling one-off issues.

  • By the time your puppy finishes this program, they’ll be ready to join group classes or additional private sessions. This creates a smooth transition from puppyhood to the next level of obedience and exposure.
