Helping You Make Informed, Confident Training Choices.
1. What age can dog training begin and why is it important?
Training should begin as soon as your puppy comes home. Early boundary setting helps prevent unwanted behaviors. The socialization window (3–12 weeks) is critical, so expose your puppy safely to new sights, sounds, and experiences. After vaccinations, continue with obedience training.
10. Can you help with housebreaking and potty training?
Yes. It’s included in our Puppy Foundations Program. Visit our blog for helpful tips.
2. How can a professional dog trainer help me and my dog?
We address behavior concerns, teach obedience, guide socialization, and strengthen your bond with your dog.
11. What should I expect during a training session?
Expect 45–60 minutes of hands-on coaching, a training log, lesson plans, and access to support. Most programs end with a certificate.
3. What training methods do you use?
We use positive reinforcement and follow Least Intrusive Minimally Aversive (LIMA) guidelines to support your dog’s learning in a humane and effective way.
4. How long does it typically take to train a dog?
Each dog learns differently, so training duration varies. We tailor our programs to your dog’s needs and goals.
