Puppies are tough.

  • They never stop. They’re biting, chewing, peeing machines.
  • If we don’t start them off right, they could develop serious issues like fear and aggression.
  • Time is of the essence. The critical window of socialization starts to close as early as 12–14 weeks of age. Invest in your puppy’s future today!

Help your puppy become a well-adjusted dog and enjoy:

  • Peace in your home with a puppy who pees outside, chews his own stuff, and uses his mouth gently.
  • A friendly, social puppy who easily adjusts to new situations.
  • A lifetime of harmony with an easy-to-live-with dog.

I understand how overwhelming it can be to raise a puppy. (Good thing they’re so cute!)

I’ll guide you through the key elements of puppy socialization and training, and help you focus on the priorities for your puppy. Let’s work together to teach your puppy that their world is safe and good.

Experiencing Behavior Problems?

Because basic skills sessions are offered at a discounted rate, we will stick to basic skills only. If you’re having behavior problems, we’ll need to address those in behavior consultations using the non-discounted rate.
