Looking to set a solid foundation for your puppy from the comfort of your own home, but not local? No problem! Dive into our Online Learning Portal and then have a professional trainer coach you through the basics you will need to set your puppy up for success via 2 virtual lessons!

We understand that puppy ownership can feel daunting. There is so much information out there, which can be extremely conflicting. You want to enjoy this adorable puppy stage, while also addressing the common puppy nuisance behaviors that every puppy owner experiences. Potty/crate training, chewing, nipping, jumping, etc can get frustrating quickly – let us take the stress out of puppy ownership and help you enjoy your puppy’s development, while setting them up for long term success for the future.

We strive to provide training options for every budget. Our Virtual Puppy Lesson Package will provide you with 2 Virtual Puppy Lessons in addition to lifelong access to our Online Learning Portal for puppies, allowing you to get started with training right away. Puppies are continuously growing, physically and mentally, which means their needs and requirements are ever changing. Setting a solid foundation from the very beginning is crucial for long term success. 

We start your learning process by giving you lifelong access to our Virtual Learning Portal, filled with pre-recorded videos and PDFs covering a wide array of topics to address your needs. This allows you to implement these crucial concepts immediately, from the comfort of your own home. 

From there, you will be able to schedule your 2 Virtual Private Lessons. Utilizing tools like Facetime, Zoom or Google Meet will allow you to meet with your professional trainer for your two 60-minute virtual lessons. This time can be utilized for any of the concepts in our puppy program, which you will have previously covered in the online learning portal.  Should you wish to submit a sample video for discussion and review prior to your lesson, you may do so to discuss specifics, then be coached through hands on virtual guidance of these concepts. Additional virtual lessons may be purchased separately should you desire more continued support. 

Consistency is key when it comes to creating new habits and your puppy is no exception.  Their bladders are small and attention spans are short, which means that the first few weeks can feel daunting during the training process. 

The Virtual Puppy Lesson Package is designed to focus on the most imperative aspects of raising a puppy. Our focus will mostly be on:

Crate Training
Potty Training
Spacial Management
Addressing problem puppy behaviors such as nipping, jumping and unwanted chewing
Confidence Building
Socialization / Exposure
Interactive Play Basics
Handling Drills for proper grooming and vet visits

Additionally, we will teach foundational learning concepts such as:

Clicker training
Shaping behaviors
Food luring
Engagement
Coming when called
Conditioned relaxation
Impulse control

Intro to obedience (such as sit, down, loose leash walking, recall)

Engagement
Coming when called
Conditioned relaxation
Impulse control 

While formal leash and off leash obedience is not included in this program, addressing these concepts will set your puppy up for a lifetime of success. We have a lifetime to teach fancy obedience skills, but how your puppy acts when they are not in an obedience behavior is what matters most.  By letting our puppy grow and mature (physically and mentally) before we add in formal obedience, we can focus on the life skills that will proactively keep us from having to address problem behaviors or modify behavior down the line. Typically, dogs we see at an older age who deal with separation anxiety, hyperactivity, excessive barking, pulling/lunging on the leash, fear reactivity (towards sights, sounds, people or other dogs), etc were “just fine” as puppies, but did not have an adequate introduction to these life skills at an earlier age, which escalated into problem behaviors as an adult.

*Please keep in mind that this is not a formal obedience program, meaning that your puppy will need to complete additional training as they mentally mature for On and Off Leash Obedience.*
