introductory training

If you are looking for a jump start to training or to bypass the intensity of a brand new puppy altogether, our board and train program is right for you. This program will get you past the  puppy stage and into adolescence  and give them a  solid foundation to grow into a confident and calm adult. Ask us about our different levels of Board/Train boot camp programs. Puppies must be 8-10 weeks of age.​ ​Training is 24/7 for 2-3-4-5 weeks in our home. Your puppy will benefit from encountering many different experiences.

social puppy

Your puppy will be introduced to multiple scenarios including adventure outings to nature destinations (parks, natural areas, trails)  and learn how to interact in different stimulating environments.  We complete many socialization exercises helping puppies to be confident and appropriate. You also receive video and pictures of your puppy so you can see your puppies training progress and what they have learned each week! 

Grooming 

I also do a head start in your puppies grooming. I bath your pup once a week with Goodwinol Shampoo made with natural cedar oil. It repels fleas, mites, and mosquitoes… on the 2nd week bath, I let your pup air dry for an hour, and then introduce them to the hair dryer. This acclimates them to regular bathing  and grooming.

crate training 

We believe in crate training and feel that if a pup is allowed free access in your home they will get into trouble. A young pup needs a safe place that is for them alone. Most puppies will not soil their crate. A puppy doesn't like to soil its own sleeping area. It is more difficult to house break a puppy that doesn't have a crate than a pup that does have a crate. I also use a containment pen around their crate for training. 

vaccines 

All Puppy owner’s need to provide me with up to date vaccine records & prof that your pup has been dewormed with all date’s of deworming (Example: most breeders deworm at 2, 4, 6, 8, weeks of age)..  All puppy owner’s are responsible to email this information to me before your puppy comes to me..  Once puppy is with me,  deworming will continue at 10, 12, 14 weeks of age… And Vaccine shot will be given 2 or 3 weeks from their last vaccine shot…​
