The first few months with a new puppy set the tone for the rest of their life. Whatever habits take hold now — good or bad — tend to stick, which is why we focus on the handful of things that actually matter most early on: socialization while your puppy is still open to new people, places, and other dogs; reliable housebreaking; and the foundational commands everything else builds on. Get this window right, and most of the “problem behaviors” people call us about later never show up in the first place.
What We Cover in Every Puppy Program
-
Socialization
Safe, structured exposure to new people, environments, sounds, and other dogs during the window when it matters most for your puppy’s long-term temperament.
-
Housebreaking
A consistent routine that gets your puppy reliably going outside, not just occasionally.
-
Foundational Obedience
Sit, stay, down, come, and leash manners, taught in a way that holds up as your puppy grows into an adult dog.
-
Bite Inhibition & Chewing
Redirecting normal puppy mouthing and chewing before it becomes a habit you have to undo later.
-
Crate Training
Building a crate association your puppy is comfortable with, useful for housebreaking, travel, and downtime.
Puppy Training Packages
We offer a few different levels of support depending on how much hands-on guidance you want.
Single Session

A focused introductory session to evaluate your puppy and start on the basics — a good fit if you want to try working with us before committing to a full package.
4-Session Package
$754.99
Covers the core fundamentals: socialization, housebreaking, and foundational commands.
8-Session Package
$1,455.99
Builds on the fundamentals with more repetition and real-world practice as your puppy grows.
12-Session Puppy, Basic & Advanced Package
$2,349.99
Our most comprehensive option, carrying your puppy from the earliest basics through more advanced obedience work.
Sessions are scheduled within a 30-day window so your puppy gets consistent, regularly spaced training rather than large gaps between lessons.
Why Start Training Early
Puppies are the most receptive to new experiences in their first few months, which makes this the easiest window to build good habits — and the hardest to make up for later if it’s missed. A puppy that’s well-socialized and has basic obedience down by adulthood is far less likely to develop the fear, reactivity, or behavioral issues that are much harder (and more expensive) to correct down the road. If you already have a specific concern — nipping, jumping, housebreaking accidents, or a puppy that’s nervous around new people — our programs address those directly rather than relying on generic class exercises.
Frequently Asked Questions
What age should I start puppy training?
As early as possible — most of our puppy clients start between 8 and 16 weeks, which is within the key socialization window. If your puppy is older, it’s still worth starting right away rather than waiting.
Do I need to attend the sessions with my puppy?
Yes. Puppy training works best when you’re involved, since you’re the one reinforcing what your puppy learns between sessions.
What’s the difference between the package levels?
The single session is a good way to try working with us or address one specific issue. The 4 and 8-session packages build in more repetition and real-world practice as your puppy grows, and the 12-session package carries your puppy furthest, into more advanced obedience work.
Can puppy training help with nipping and chewing?
Yes — redirecting normal puppy mouthing and chewing into appropriate outlets is part of every program, since it’s one of the most common concerns new puppy owners bring to us.
Do you offer puppy training in-home, or only at your facility?
Puppy training sessions can be done in-home so your puppy learns in the environment they’ll actually be living in — ask us about scheduling that works for you.
